I got mine from Soundworks. Works like a charm........ so far.
Excellent choice, thumper.
BTW, local is always best. Support local shops. Good prices, good service, and no hassles.
The birthsheet on my PDX-5 had it rated at 800+ watts RMS. If you have an Alpine deck with AiNet, even better.

Anyway...........

I think the main thing we need to know is what you are powering? What kind of car?
