Compact Power amp with 4 channels plus a dedicated sub channel
$949.99
Overview
The T1000X5ad is a compact Power series Class-AD/BD 5-channel amplifier rated 1,000 watts. Continuous power is 100 W × 4 plus 400 W × 1 at 4 ohms, or 100 W × 4 plus 600 W × 1 at 2 ohms (sub also 600 W at 1 ohm). Top-mounted controls, C.L.E.A.N. clip LEDs, Punch EQ, dual-fan cooling, and high-level auto turn-on suit cars, trucks, motorcycles, and UTVs.
Product details
One chassis for mids and a sub
Splitting full-range and bass across two amplifiers eats space in small vehicles. The T1000X5ad packs four Class-AD channels and a Class-BD sub channel into a compact Power chassis: 100 W × 4 + 400 W × 1 at 4 ohms, or 100 W × 4 + 600 W × 1 at 2 ohms, with the sub channel also rated 600 W at 1 ohm. Average efficiency is above 85%, which helps hybrid and small-battery installs.

CLEAN set-up, Punch EQ, dual fans
C.L.E.A.N. input/output clip detection, top-mounted controls, and a patented Punch EQ circuit speed tuning. Differential inputs with high-level auto turn-on and a remote-out lead wake the system from speaker-level inputs. Dual-fan forced induction cooling and real-time thermal sensing with Rollback protection keep the amp online under hard loads. The amp is 2013 PLC2 remote ready.

Bridging and inputs
Front channels bridge to 200 W × 2 at 4 ohms when you need more midbass power. Input sensitivity spans 150 mV to 12 V. Frequency response is 20 Hz–20 kHz. CEA-2006 and CE compliant power ratings. Plan charging capacity and wire gauge for a full 1,000-watt load before you mount the chassis.
