This CX-Series Mono Amp is now one-ohm stable, giving you even more power and wiring options for your system! This Class-D CXA400.1 features a variable bass boost with KickEQ™, giving you as much as a 6dB of extra bump. A powerful 12dB crossover and 24dB subsonic filter is included, letting you quickly tune your system to perfection. Use the full-range outputs to expand your system with other bass amps, or a full-range amp to complete your system. From your dash, a simple turn of the optional CXARC Remote Bass Controller (sold separately) increases your output to fit your choice of music.
CX.1 Amplifiers accept up to 40 volts (400 watts) of speaker-level input signal. This kind of flexibility both makes line-out converters unnecessary and optimizes your sound quality at the same time!
Expand your system with full-range, RCA pass-through outputs, then choose a “standard” mount or a cool vertical mount with the included hardware.
CX.1 Amps deliver as much as 400 watts into one bass channel. See below for more details.
If you have two mono amps or powered subwoofers, check out the DBRC Remote for controlling both from the same knob.
