Features & Benefits
Complete System Solution: Single amplifier powers entire audio system—four speaker channels for front and rear speakers plus dedicated high-power subwoofer channel—eliminates need for separate speaker and subwoofer amplifiers, simplifying installation, reducing wiring complexity, cutting costs, and saving mounting space in vehicles with limited installation areas.
Powerful Subwoofer Channel: Dedicated 500W RMS at 2Ω subwoofer channel delivers serious bass output for single or dual subwoofer configurations—provides enough power for 10-inch or 12-inch active subwoofers, bass packs, or passive subwoofer enclosures without requiring separate monoblock amplifier purchase, installation, and wiring runs.
Quality Speaker Amplification: Four channels delivering 90W RMS each at 2Ω provide ample power for component speakers, coaxial speakers, or full-range systems—significant upgrade from factory headunit power (typically 15-25W), ensuring speakers reach full dynamic potential with improved clarity, bass control, and maximum volume without distortion.
Adjustable Input Sensitivity: Wide 0.15-8V sensitivity range accommodates factory headunits with low voltage outputs and aftermarket headunits with high-voltage pre-outs—allows proper gain matching for balanced system performance preventing distortion from over-driving inputs or weak output from under-utilizing amplifier capability, ensuring optimal sound quality.
Low Distortion Performance: Less than 0.1% THD ensures clean, accurate amplification without audible distortion—maintains audio quality at all volume levels during extended listening sessions on long Australian highway drives, regional touring, or daily commuting without listening fatigue from harmonic artifacts common in cheaper amplifiers.
Excellent Signal-to-Noise Ratio: Greater than 90dB SNR provides quiet operation without background hiss or noise—ensures music, podcasts, audiobooks, and hands-free calls sound clear and professional even during quiet passages or low-volume listening, critical for quality audio systems where noise floor matters.
Space-Efficient Design: Compact 420 x 267 x 87mm footprint and 2.6kg weight allow installation under front seats, behind rear seats, in side panels, or boot corners—fits locations where separate amplifier setups requiring multiple units won't accommodate, preserving cargo space in utes and wagons for touring gear and equipment.
Class A/B Efficiency: Class A/B topology balances sound quality with thermal efficiency—delivers clean power without excessive heat generation common in pure Class A designs while maintaining superior audio performance compared to Class D switching amplifiers, ensuring reliable operation during extended use in Australian heat without thermal protection shutdowns.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this amplifier power my entire car audio system from one unit?
Yes, that's exactly what 5-channel amplifiers do. Connect your front and rear speakers to channels 1-4 (90W each), connect your subwoofer to channel 5 (500W), and you've powered your complete system from a single amplifier. No separate amps needed—simplified wiring, reduced cost, less space required. Ideal for complete system upgrades.
What speaker and subwoofer combinations work best with this amplifier?
Ideal setup: Component or coaxial speakers rated 70-100W RMS on channels 1-4, and single 12-inch subwoofer (500W RMS 2Ω) or dual 10-inch subwoofers (250W each, wired for 2Ω total) on channel 5. Nakamichi NSE1658 6.5" speakers + NBX305A 12" active sub would be excellent pairing.
What power wiring do I need for this amplifier?
Dual 40A fuses mean approximate 80A total draw at maximum output. Use minimum 4-gauge power cable from battery with 80-100A fuse within 450mm of battery connection. Ensure quality ground connection (4-gauge to chassis metal). Verify your vehicle's alternator capacity (100A+ recommended) and battery condition before installation.
Does this amplifier include crossovers and bass boost?
Verify from product documentation. Most 5-channel amplifiers include low-pass crossover for subwoofer channel and high-pass for speaker channels, plus bass boost control. Check specifications for crossover frequencies (typically 50-200Hz adjustable), slopes, and bass boost range (0-12dB typical). External DSP provides more control if needed.
Will this amplifier fit under my front seats?
At 420 x 267 x 87mm (16.5" x 10.5" x 3.4"), it fits under many vehicle seats, but measure carefully. Check height clearance, seat rail positions, and allow airflow space for cooling. Alternative mounting: behind rear seats, side panels, or boot. Secure mounting essential—2.6kg amplifier requires proper brackets preventing movement during driving.
