Best UTV + DSP amp on the market!

No amp comes close to the power and features of the Kicker PXA1000.5 amp. Five Star Car Audio dyno tested it on their YouTube channel. They got 125 watts rms x 4 @4 ohms, and 800 watts rms @1 ohm on the subwoofer channel, 1000 watts dynamic. Over delivering on power is pretty standard for Kicker amps, but wait, there's more! Kicker just announced the PXA1000.5 and 400.4 have built in DSP! Diamond Audio is the only other option for built in DSP in a powersports amp. And they aren't even close on power output. The Kicker PXA amps were already industry leading or tied with Rockford Fosgate for REAL power output. But now with built in DSP, it's the best on the market. I have a 14 speaker Can-Am X3 4 seater with two PXA1000.5 and a PXA600.1. It sounds incredible, never overheats or goes into protect, and takes a beating on the Arizona trails. I have submerged them in river crossings, and blasted them countless times with the pressure washer. Other brands get more attention in the UTV market, but Kicker is delivering the goods! I can't wait to get the DSP adapter and start fine tuning my system. It will be pounding at the Sand Sport Super Show in the Curtis Valves booth. Hopefully I can swap out the KMXL coaxial speakers for the new Kicker MS series speakers! Build your utv or motorcycle system with a Kicker PXA1000.5 at the heart, you won't be disappointed!

Pros: Over delivers on its power ratings Built in DSP Waterproof Durability Small size Efficiency Value

Cons: Power cable connectors are fine and work as expected, but could be better

Very impressed. Small easy to conceal, yet powerful enough to turn heads.

Pros: Small, powerful, easy to read directions.

Cons: Yet to find a con....
