Aren't the new ones built w/o all the plastic? I was interested in these amps but was hesitant b/c of the plastic casing. Other than that aren't they good solid amps?

It worked ok on a 4ohm load per channel and an 8 ohm load per channel ok. It did get hot even at those loads and yes yes I know how to set gains thx.. It worked but u could tell it was cheap and I wanted something lil better and smaller. Great budget amp but may get real hot.

you must have had the old design were it was all plastic and like you said, was a heatbox lol.. these new ones seem to dissipate heat a lot more.. its not bad for a $150 amp if you ask me..

Ok, thats good. I was getting worried there for a min. These are the amps I plan on running cause I'm on a tight budget with my build and these seem to be the best bang for the buck. I'll have an hour drive each way once I get back and didn't want amps that will overheat and always cut off

Make sure you buy the newer design. If you're looking for amps that can play continuously, you definitely don't want amps getting hot. Personally, I would stay away from the ONYX line. The DSC line was 5x better.

I don't know about the expensive Class A/B amplifiers, but this is a typical class A/B experience IMHO.

Yes most a/b class amps do tend to run hot even with a proper cooling HS. Now toss in nothing but plastic and guess what plastic does not get rid of heat very effectively. Soooooo again great budget amp but not something I would buy again.

Ever ran one??? I have and I think your mind would change if u ever had.. The new ones might be better i doubt it though. Unless you love cheap plastic amps then yep its the amp for you.. Again great budget amp but louisiana heat and plastic dnt mix well here...
