Kickin' it Old School? 1996 Kicker X50s Cheater Amp Dyno Test and Review [4K]

#AmpDyno #Kicker #Amplifier
Takin' it back to the old school with this 1996 Kicker X50s amplifier. As part of the Old School SPL Challenge, I decided I was going to try out the Kicker Quad Box with some classic 90's "50 watt" amps and why not start with a Kicker amp?
The X50s is rated to deliver:
25x2 at 4 ohms
50x2 at 2 ohms (or 100x1 at 4 ohms bridged)
100x2 at 1 ohm (or 200x1 at 2 ohms bridged)
170x2 at 0.5 ohms (or 340x1 at 1 ohm bridged)

Don't forget to guess in the comments what SPL number you think I'll hit with this amp and the Kicker L7R Quad Box! See the Quad Box video here:    • 150dB from a Factory Loaded Subwoofer...
