Lanzar Vibe 230 Car Audio Amplifier

Pros: Cheap, decent sound.
Cons: Cheap

I got this amp as part of a package deal from some ghetto shop. I thought ok, Lanzar, they make good stuff...

Well, the amp was OK at best. At the time I was using this amp to push 1 10" MBQuart sub. My bass wasn't loud, but I figured this...

Pros: nothing bad to say about it
Cons: vertically positioned wire connections

I spent about a year trying to find a good quality amp that was affordable as well. After 3 previous brands I've settled on the Lanzar Vibe line of amps. I've had the 230 for over a year now and have been very satisfied. It's an affordable amp that...

Pros: sturdy, basic features, power
Cons: very few...

I have a Lanzar Vibe230 amp. This amplifier is pretty good for the price. At 100x2RMS and 350x1RMS, these amps work well with components or low-mid power subs. They have high and low pass crossovers that are sufficient for good audio reproduction....

Pros: cheap,looks clean...[not all that flashy needless stuff for the high school market.
Cons: leaves you wondering if you could of done better.

If you run into one of these lines you'll probably be buying at the swapmeet or discount audio store ...

Pros: Cheap and loud for the price
Cons: Tacky looking, Kind of chintzy.

I purchased this amp on ebay for $47 shipped. I had read the review on here and was expecting junk. However, upon receiving this amp I was pleasantly surprised.

First of all, this is only the second amp I have owned for mobile audio. The first one was some P.O.S. Wal Mart off brand amp. It was a 5 channel 1000watt amp. I only ran 1 channel to 2 subs at 2 ohms but this killed the wal mart amp, so, I bought this.

Upon hooking it up, I turned the gains down and turned everything up very slowly, adjusting as I went, the whole nine yards. After playing with it for about 2 hours, I finally decided to go for a cruise. Rolling through town, I was able to get people with their windows completely rolled up in their SUVs to glare.

I like this amp, and if you can find one as cheap as I did, it is worth it. Otherwise, if it is going to be more expensive, save your money for something else.
