I'm looking at a 301S amp to power a 10" kicker comp vr. Anyone had any experience with these amps?

Check to see if its last years model without the fuse. I wouldnt get it, if it blows or shorts buy accident u dont have a fuse for protection. fosgate seems to be getting pretty cheap in my opinion. this years model at least has a fuse.then youll be ok. did u look at kicker amps  the are worth the couple extra bucks if u can get one.

Damn, I'm glad you brought that up. I loked at the manual online and it says there is a fuse, but the diagram of the amp does not show one. That's kinda weird.

Edit: Just got an email back from the seller, he confirmed it does not have an amp.

Thanks a ton for bringing that up! I would have been super pissed if I bought it and it didn't have an onboard fuse.
