| yosoyjavi's Full Review: Power Acoustik VU560-4X Car Amp |
This amp from Power Acoustik is no joke! I can totally see why they named this series the Hammer Series.
Basically, it's rated at 560 watts max, and it's 4 channels. I think that those numbers might be a little off since I had it hooked up to 2 10" Rockford Fosgate Punch XLC subs in my ride and it pushed them so hard I had to adjust the power so it wouldn't blow them out.
The built in crossover is really easy to use and the bass boost on this beast is really something to be reckoned with. From one bass lover to another, don't use the bass boost unless you have some hardcore subs because anything less just won't hack it.
The plexiview glass is really cool and everyone that I showed mine too was absolutely in love with its cool look.
I do have to mention that my only complaint with the amp is in regards to its circuit protection system. When the amp gets warm, it tends to cut off since their isnt any kind of heatsink or fan built in. In essence, it cuts off to prevent getting fried, but it can be annoying at times.
All in all though, it's one heck of an amp and if you shop around at a swap meet or ebay auctions, I'm betting you can pick one up for cheap.
