Skar Audio engineered the RP-2000.1D Class D monoblock subwoofer amplifier to be dominant in both power and reliability compared to anything else on the market in its' class. Designing the most efficient, well built, high quality amplifiers is where we start here at Skar Audio, and that is exactly what is delivered in the RP-2000.1D. The RP-2000.1D is 1-ohm stable and utilizes a wide array premium internal components that make it extremely powerful and reliable - such as its high speed MOSFET power supply and advanced PCB board layout. Conservatively rated at 2,000 watts RMS power at a 1-ohm load, with the capabilities of reaching beyond 2,800 watts at max power output. This amplifier is by far one of the most popular and affordable mono-blocks we have ever released, and is great for powering a pair of 1,000 watt rms subwoofers or one larger and more powerful 2,000 watt rms subwoofer. Furthermore, the oversized 1/0-gauge power and ground terminals found on the amplifier allow for maximum current flow and therefore higher power output and more efficient operation. You'll have full reign over your amplifier with the built-in user control panel, featuring a bass EQ switch (0, +6, +12dB), and variable adjustment tunings for gain level, low-pass filter, and subsonic filter. In addition to all the above features, this model also features 4-way protection circuitry, which will give the user the peace of mind knowing they are protected against damage to the amplifier for various reasons - including electrical shortage, overheating, low voltage, and more. This amplifier comes with a remote subwoofer level control (bass knob) allowing the user to have full control over their bass from the front of the vehicle.

Has protection problem
I'm really disappointed in this Amp Ive had a lot if stuff from skar and never was disappointed once always very impressed but I got this Amp and it looked great had a nice layout so I was excited to hook it up I ran 0 guage to it and wired it correctly used about 4 full songs with it not even pushing the limits of the Amp and it goes into protect so I was okay big deal? After awhile it still wouldn't come out of protection so I decided to email skar audio and ask them what to do they told me to disconnect everything from the Amp and let sit for 24 hours so I did I let it sit for about 30 hours plugged everything back in made sure it looked good and went to turn it on and went straight into protection (no music was even playing) and it won't come out so I'm very very disappointed will be trying to return it.UPDATE: I returned it and purchased the same exact amount again and have 0 problems with it

Monster amplifier
This amplifier is a beast but it is definitely power-hungry! I have this amplifier pushing 2 zvx-12v2 Subs wired at 1 ohm. My entire car looks like a lung the way it flexes. Originally I had 0 gauge ofc wire from my primary h8 AGM battery 2 a Northstar group 31 AGM battery 2 a 50 farad capacitor then to the amp powered by a singer 390 amp alternator however it kept popping a 500 amp circuit breaker. I recently purchased 2/0 OFHC wire from GP car audio and plan on making two runs from my primary battery to my secondary battery and then use dual amp inputs to make two runs to the capacitor and amplifier. Hopefully it will quit popping my circuit breaker. I purchased the RP 4500 because so many manufacturers over rate the power of their amplifiers however skar definitely under-rated the power on this thing. I had it dynoed at 5164 watt RMS at 14.2 volt. I would recommend this amplifier to anyone serious about their audio system they just have to make sure they have high-quality wire with a serious charging system

Please install and power properly!!
I've seen a lot of mixed reviews about this amplifier but i still took a chance and got myself one. Firstly the amplifier is thin and long so make sure you have the space for it before you even think of purchasing it.Some things to consider as well:The signal processing section of this amplifier is not the best but it does what it's supposed to.This amplifier requires full 0awg power and ground wiring and over 200A of readily available current.This amplifier also requires above 5v rms of signal drive (MOST IMPORTANT)I currently have this powering my Skar Audio EVL122 at 1 ohm and after an hour of hard playing it's only warm to the touch.Once installed and powered properly this amplifier works!!!!

This amp is a beast
If only i could give this amp 10 stars amazing quality and power for the price. I have this skar amp powering a 18" crescendo sub at 1500watts RMS wired to 2ohms. Only thing's I recommend is doing the big 3 upgrade and possibly adding a 2nd battery depending on how much power your going to be using. I'm currently doing both due to the amount of voltage drop I'm getting. Most amps that can even come close to this one run 2x the price. My old rockford fosgate 750d was the same price and isnt even compatible for the amount of power for the price. Watch some amp dyno videos on this amp on YouTube it definitely puts out a lot more then 2,000watts RMS

1yr 4 months is all she wrote
The amp keeps blowing fuses played great for the 1 yr 4 months I had it now i spent better part of the day checking and rerunning all new wires yes all new wires checked my meters for power and ground leading to the unit, still no luck red little light comes on and pop goes the fuse I would not recommend this unit to anyone

Gotta have a ANL in-line 200a and good wiring! I was blown away by how much ...
This amp exceeded my expectations by a mile! Have it hooked up to an 18” X-D2 Sundown wired @ 1ohm.. gain set to 1/3 and bass knob at 2/3 and it’s shakes my whole neighborhood with ease! Gotta have a ANL in-line 200a and good wiring! I was blown away by how much power this beast has. Those negative reviewers don’t know how to hook up an amp properly!

Little damage on outside but to lazy to return.. but WOW its got POWER!!
So i am an average bass fanatic, decided to skar it up. Looked at some youtube dyno tests, skar was in my budget..tried boss, pyramid, all the others trust me im 43yr old and love my cheap amps.. they work well.. this amp performed great in dyno test on youtube, so i gave it a go.. and i am more than happy with it 220 bucks, its a blurry driving kinda experience, paired with a qbomb box and a 15" dual 2ohm skar woofer, wired to 1 ohm.. its well worth the price of $500plus i paid for all 3.. boom boom.. average bass heads and rookies u will just want more when all ur parts rattle inside u.. A+

Solid build, and power.
Awesome amp. Well built, very powerful. I have this running two Skar EVLs 10” Duel 4 ohm. I have wired them to 1 ohm and 4 ohm loads. At 1 ohm the amp did run warm, Doing the maths the final load was around 0.8 ohms! Not recommended...... I have them now at 4 ohm, (around 3.2 ohms final load) as each coil is 3.8 ohms, and they sound very, very good. Amp cool, gains set around 1/3 with the subsonic around 1/4. Bass boost set to +6 dB. Ditched the bass remote as the main unit sub control gives a cleaner, tighter bass. Only thing I don’t like is the heat sink vents are under the amp when you fix it in place, I used a set of hard rubber blocks giving a 15mm space for the vents to get some air in. Had it now for 6 months. Skar are certainly making waves in regards to price and the quality. I am now converted having been a GZ fan for nearly 20 years.UPDATE... Being wired back to 1 ohm, (earth bad for above review early this year) Now being at 1 ohm load and the subs (Skar evl 10s) are run in this amp is truly a beast! Runs warmish, even after a heavy beating. No issues at all. Really impressed with this amp.

Power House. For a week or two then bang.
Got used said only the box was damaged but it has a scratch on top of the amp. Apart from amazing amp build power and sound definitely would recommend. I need a second one now 1 for each sub oh and excepts 0 guage power wires definate bonusUpdate after a few weeks amp blew a capacitor which I have found out to be a rare type and very hard to find I've tried everywhere even contacting the company themselves and they couldn't help me. so it's in bits in a box as a doner amp.. and I've got a Ground Zero amp instead now which is 10 x better and it's been wired up and set exactly the same for several weeks now with no issues. As the company tried saying I'd wired it wrong or the settings were wrong.

amazing power
i bought this today after a long search of powerful amplifier and i did the right choice, i watched some dyno test of this amp on YouTube and all of them showed that this amp is capable of 2500 watt actually at 1 ohm, great product, STRONGLY RECOMMENDED!

Love Skars Gear
Excellent amp. I have it pushing 2 Skar VVX12s and this setup hits way harder than my pdx-m12/Type Rs did in the same truck/enclosure.
