Getting along with your in-laws can be tough. For newlywed Grace de Lomas (Samara Weaving), it's positively life-threatening. At a gathering with her husband's (Mark O'Brien) wealthy and offbeat family, Grace takes part in a game of hide-and-seek that turns into a desperate fight for survival when it becomes apparent that she's being hunted to the death by her new-and heavily armed-relatives. Laced with pitch-black humor, this quirky thriller also stars Adam Brody, Henry Czerny, and Andie MacDowell. 95 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.

Upgrade your car audio system with this Kenwood power amplifier. It has a peak power of 1000W and a thermal management system to control amplitude and support continuous sound reproduction when temperatures rise due to high output. The negative feedback circuit increases sound quality, and this compact Kenwood power amplifier doesn't take much space.

How can this Kenwood Kac-501 amplifier push your 1400 watt amp with power? Maybe your subwoofer(s) but not your amp. Please explain thanks.

Pump up the bass with this CompR 12-inch subwoofer enclosure. This setup features Kicker's 12-inch, 2-ohm subwoofer installed in a carpeted, black MDF box. The enclosure also features a double-stacked magnet and internal bracing for secure operation. This CompR 12-inch subwoofer enclosure operates on 500W of power and can produce 1000W of peak power.

There should not be any vocals coming from a subwoofer. Your frequency is set to high.

Not the old Kicker I remember
By NRS2 from Lafayette
can barely handle 600 watts and then you start to smell the coil smoking. The cone travel is probably under 7mm max. The old SoloBaric from 20 years ago had double that. No deep bass. Just sounds like someone hitting on a big wooden box with a sledge hammer. If any of you think this is SQ then youre dead wrong. I had the Old Kicker subs back in the 90;s These new ones aint nothing like that. Seems they traded SQ for quick prefab all ready made convience. Ill return it and get somethign else. I am greatful I can at least return it.

How can you compare a CompR to an L7. There are like five different types of L7. CompR is like second from lowest. L7 start at a minimum of 750 watts and the CompR is a maximum of 500 watts.

This is not a 1000 watt subwoofer. It clearly states 500 watts RMS. Never ever use the peak watts of a speaker, subwoofer and amplifier. Always use RMS.

Don't....Even....Bother
By ChrisMajestic from Baltimore, MD
I've owned plenty of Kicker products including several L7 and L5 Solobaric subs. This was my frist time buying a Kicker Comp sub and I will NEVER buy another one. I paired this up with the Kicker CXA600.1 amplifer, which was supposed to be a perfect match and the subwoofer blew in less than a week. There is no way this thing is capable of handling 600w RMS. It's more like 200-300w RMS. I only had the amp turned up halfway. Don't waste your time with this sub. It's garbage.

Are you sure you bought the right subwoofer. You state the Comp which is only rated at 300 watts. The CompR is rated at 500 watts.

How in the world are you powering four speakers, tweeters and subwoofers with an monoblock amplifier. That is impossible you would be at negative numbers on your final ohm load.

The R-115SW subwoofer is the perfect combination of power, sophisticated and heart-pounding bass. Packing a serious punch, the R-115SW will not only wake your neighbors, it'll piss them off. The way only Klipsch can.

THIS THING IS HUGE. Be sure to have a spot dedicated for it. Makes great sound but takes a few days to break in and get setup properly. Neccessary to complete any RP 5.1+ setup.

Good sub, but...

Not a bad sub, but you can get an SVS subwoofer that goes lower in frequency, and has more power for the same price...

Yeah sure. But it will also be a smaller subwoofer. Larger cone means more displacement.

Good amp if you don’t push to many speakers
By DrWoo
Amp has a shut off when it gets hot. Pushing a 10inch tube, 2 6x9 , 2 5x4, 2 4x 6. Might as well get the big amplifier this one will cut out when you try to turn it up.

Are you really pushing 6 speakers and a subwoofer with this amp? No wonder the amplifier can't handle it. I'm surprised you haven't burned up the amplifier and your car yet.

How do you expect a four channel amplifier to run six speakers and a subwoofer? No wonder your amplifier is running hot and shutting off. There's no way it is supposed to run in that configuration. Then you still have the audacity to rate three stars like it's the amplifiers fault. Unbelievable.

The CS Series delivers remarkable performance and ultra-clean bass, utilizing a heavy-duty motor/magnet structure featuring EVC (Extended Voice Coil) technology not found in stock speakers. They use polypropylene cones with tough, ribbed, UV-treated surrounds for precise linear excursion and reliability.Geek Squad~ Installation RecommendedVisit your local Best Buy store for more information.
 

Do you think these speakers would sound better than the Bose speakers I have in my car now? The Bose speakers are in a 2001 Nissan Maxima. They still sound good but they are old. Thanks

That depends. Since your car has a Bose system it might be amplified. If it is you're going to have to check that the system is 4 ohms. A lot of times factory premium systems run at 2 ohms. If you connect 4 ohm speakers like these the system will sound half as loud. Hope that helps.

Whats the difference between this amp ( kac 501) and the kenwood X501 sold by crutchfield?

The X501 is in the Exelon series which comes with a 2 year warranty. Better build quality. I believe the Kac-501 is only sold at Best Buy. But still highly recommended.

Will this amp work on 1 solar baric L7 kicker 12

It would work but I think this amplifier is way under powered for a Solo Baric 12". I would recommend and amp with 750 watts.

would this amp go with my kenwood kfc-w12ps 12" subs.

This is a four channel amp. Use the Kenwood Kac-501, which is the mono amp.

I want to use this amp to power my subs and other speakers in my car. Then use a Bluetooth box to link with my phone and eliminate the cd radio player can I do that ? Does it have enough channels

No you can't use this amplifier for that purpose. What you are looking for is a five channel amplifier. You can also find amplifiers with bluetooth built in but they are still very rare. Kenwood Exelon X801-5 or the newer model X802-5 both have 50 watts x 4 channels, plus 500 watts for your subwoofer. Pioneer GM-D9605 or the newer model GM-D9705 have 75 watts x 4 channels, plus 600 watts for your subwoofer. Hope this helps.
