i currently have this amp in my fairing ( have to use an amp rack for road glide bc it’s not a small amp). i have it powering 6 speakers amd it sounds really good. you can run a 4 ohm set of speakers in parallel resulting in two ohm load amd each channel will put out 400 watts. 200 per speaker. that’s according to manufacturers claims i’ve not seen it dyno’d anywhere and i just used a dd1 to set gains so i have no way of knowing what it’s actually producing but it sounds great

Better quality & reliability than the popular SD brand but way overpriced and a much larger footprint than the SDs.
SD without question has the sled audio market cornered mainly due to the size to watt ratio.

The new SDs the are specifically designed for the Motorsport section of the audio industry are getting very good reviews thus far. Lil more expensive though.

i definitely agree on the over priced part as well as the huge size of the euphoria amps and i didn’t realize it at the time that i bought the one i have but they have a pretty shitty SNR numbers also. i bought this one that i have now for three reasons. one and most importantly bc lucky 7 was having a sale on them and the price was super low compared to the euphoria site or anywhere else for that matter. secondly i had just sent two SD800.4s back for repair bc the set screws kept breaking away from the amp internally causing it to short. so i was out off by SD atm. and was not going to buy A 1200.4 ever ever ( so i said then ) and lastly i just wanted to see if it was a good amplifier and i’d never heard one at the time

i like it ok. it’s powerful and doesn’t get too hot it’s just huge and expensive of you have to pay full price
