They hold true to their 600rms rating. They hooked up for 2ohm operation and the Kenwood X1R puts out 1200rms at 2ohms. Of course I have not truly tested if their power rating is exact, but given my little bit of tuning I did today, I would say its pretty close!!!


They're definitely not fans of people who embrace the "ignorance is bliss" mentality. Those guys are very researched and intelligent. They love to help and hold the hands of new guys so long as you're willing to work pretty hard to understand.

I agree...they can come off as jerks to new people who don't understand their perspective but I understand why it pushes their buttons. They don't want to become a forum that authors best buy retail mentalities about products. They actually have no issues with low end gear so long as you don't pretend it'll beat out $1k equipment. Just be frank about design and goals and they're pretty friendly. ESPECIALLY the ones who ARE knowledgeable.

Those kenwoods look really nice. I've wanted to try a small 2 channel with T/A for rear fill application...still trying to iron out specifics for that. The diymobileaudio members seem to have a lot of great things to say about those amps you chose. What are you using up front?
