I think alot of it the model and price range. My Alpine 400W recently took a dump. I don't drive it hard but 5 years and poof, it'* fried. Fuses fine, bla, bla, bla. No output. Guess I shouldn't complain. 5 years for $179.

I was basing what I said mostly off of the older amps thinking they were the same internally like the 3 and 4 series were. Perhaps kenwood has improved their lineup. I\'ve. Kinda lost my respect for their products after a few too many bad experiences. I have a few kenwood paperweights in my garage.

In any case, I\'m glad the install went well. Did you get your power wire fused?
