High continuous output - thanks to Class D amplification

Class D topology delivers power with high efficiency and reduced heat generation, allowing a single-channel design to reach 400WRMS at 1 ohm and 800W peak. Small switching components and efficient topology enable the compact chassis size.

Enough sustained power to drive demanding subwoofers at low impedances. Consistent output suits systems that need strong bass without a large amplifier box.

Easy fit in tight spaces - with an ultra-compact footprint

External dimensions of 37 x 157 x 82mm are supplied for planning installations, and the design is described as ultra compact for easy installation. Compatibility with a Critical Link Rapid kit speeds mounting in confined vehicle bays.

Fits under seats or behind panels where conventional amplifiers would not. Ideal for builds that must preserve trunk or cabin space.

Remote level control on the dash - with included dash-mount remote

A dash-mount remote control is included, allowing level adjustments from the driver's position without accessing the amplifier itself. The remote connects to the unit for convenient user control.

Quickly tweak bass levels from the driving seat during tuning or while on the move. Great for systems shared between different drivers or varied listening preferences.
