Where did you find it for $189 shipped? Cheapest I could find was ~$220

Yes, it doest rated and more. It's a great amp, and there are plenty of reviews and members running them on the forums. I have one as well. The entire DSC series has received lots of praise, and the DSC4125 is a perfect 4-channel match for it.

great amp!

So I was reading and the largest gauge these amps accept is 4gauge? Even the 2000.1 only takes 4gauge?

Little small if you ask me. Only thing holding me back from buying one.

According to features/specs tab, it shows max input gauge is 1/0: MB Quart DSC-1500.1D (dsc15001d) - Monoblock Car Amplifier, Power Amp - Sonic Electronix

Can someone confirm this as well?

And yes, it's free shipping //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif - "Free GROUND shipping for orders over $100.00"

Also, for some reason I highly doubt that this amp retailed for $799. According to froogle, there's a company trying to sell it for $750 but most prices are in the 250's.

Also, thanks for the links

As long as its a short run of 4 gauge it will carry the the current just fine.

i see that some places selling this amp say 4gauge max input and some say 0 gauge.

MB quarts site says 4gauge in the PDF manual.

I'm sure 4gauge will carry the 1500rms just fine at 2ft, but I purchased 100ft of pretty 1/0 gauge already.

You could just trim the wire down. It shouldn't hurt anything.

Try telling something like that to all these Stetsom, Soundigital, and other various amp users that have one 1/0 input for a 7kw amp, and just two for a 12kw amp.

Yep its a great amp for the money..I've owned two SAZ-1500D's and one SAE-1200D. For the price, I'd take the MB Quart over either of those amps unless you plan on running below 1ohm and beating your amp to hell.

I have a dsc1500 and it's a 4 gauge power input.
