Excellent sound quality. Clean 250 mono watts into 4 ohms. Not less than 2-ohms stable, however.

Exelent amp...I deal and run memphis in my stereo...I love this little amp...Like dyohn said Excellent sound Q....

Powerful 500 watts at 2 ohms....Clean amp with a small footprint that you can put anywhere....

I highly recomend this amp to anyone whose application will fit this amp...

Asmodeus,

I just want to be sure, Id like to get it so I can run a Single P2 12 off it in our spare Kia Sportage

Yes, the ratings on Memphis gear are honest and maybe a bit under-rated.

I had the 16-MC250D for awhile. Great amp, and definatly underrated. Although it says it is not 1-ohm stable I ran it at 1-ohm for the couple months I had it and had no problems. When I sold my Cavalier and bought my Crown Vic I got a bigger amp becasue the memphis simply wasnt putting out enough power to get the bass I wanted in the bigger car.

I already bought it, it was a steal.. let me rephrase that its not stolen.. but I did get it for $125.00 no warranty or anything but I've never needed one from my distributor he hooks me up with free stuff all the time to make up for the no warranty on equipment

I can live with that, I just wish he could get some eclispe stuff

Thanks all
