shipping was fast and free when I placed the order over the interent. so as far as the amp ,I am useing the hog tunes rated at 60 watts at 4 ohms ,and the amp is rated at 50 watts at 4 ohms . very small amp compact and came with all the hook ups to my sony.volume is definitly louder can hear it no problem at all speeds .very hard to get 5 1/4 inch speakers to play like in the house .but for the little bit of money this amp costs you really can not beat it .came with a 30 day trial but no way will I take it out .hope this helps if anybody is looking for more volume
