they are the Hyundai Pony of amps, they are ok for what you pay, but dont expect anything spectacular out of them, ID go with Pioneer over Kenwood though, the reliabilty of the new Pioneer (or shall I say 2 year old amps with new cosmetics) seem to be really good, out of all the amps I have sold I only had one back, and it wasnt the amps fault, it was some zeeks fault for not hooking it up right

I love my Kenwood amp(8101D)

It takes a beating, but keeps on ticking
