I just purchased an MTX 225HO for cheap. If I recall these were seriously underrated amps and could put out something like 700w rms @ 1 ohm.

I will be using it to power (2) RE SR 10" running at 1 ohm in a small sealed box.

Opinions of the amp? Anyone own one?

It's old but it hasn't seen much use, it belonged to a friend who bought it new and it has been on a shelf for at least 7 years.

 
Thats a good old school rare amp. Post up some pics if you can.
I'll post up some pics when we are doing the install. It's a little scratched, he didn't have it protected in the trunk. I might have to refinish the amp to make it look good again.

 
i had a gut pic of it but it somehow got deleted....//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

RMS Power measured at 12.5 Volts DC:

25 Watts x 2 into a 4 Ohm load with less than 0.05% Thd+N

50 Watts x 2 into a 2 Ohm load with less than 0.1% Thd+N

100 Watts x 2 into a 1 Ohm load with less than 0.3% Thd+N

200 Watts x 2 into a 1/2 Ohm load with less than 0.5% Thd+N

400 Watts bridged into a 1 Ohm load with less than 0.5% Thd+N

Dynamic Power (IHF-202 Std) measured at 14.4 Volts DC

65 Watts x 2 into a 4 Ohm load

120 Watts x 2 into a 2 Ohm load

200 Watts x 2 into a 1 Ohm load

370 Watts x 2 into a 1/2 Ohm load
