I have one driving my ts-w306's and gives them all they can handle. Some people dont like kenwood amps but ive never had a problem with mine. Stays cool and provides more than enough power.

i had one on a 12 type R wired to 2 ohms, and i didn't set my gains right but it still overheated ALOT if you want kenwood, get one that has a fan built in, but you'd be better off getting something else or getting a dual 2 ohm type R and wiring it down to 1 ohm and getting like a 1 ohm stable 800 watt amp.

^planet audio makes good stuff. they can be found for cheap and they never get overheated.

the kenwood i had was the 2 channel 7202 model, had a built in fan and it was hardly warm to the touch, the efficiency was pretty good too.

it doesnt necessarily have to be kenwood. i was just browsing at amps and it seemed like a good one. how about the hifonics brutus?
