Reliable bass power for a daily driver!
Style: 1600W Monoblock
I’ve been running this R1600M to power my subwoofer in the Corolla, and it has plenty of juice to get the air moving. The Class A/B circuitry gives the bass a nice, warm tone that sounds much more natural than some of the cheaper digital amps I’ve tried. It’s a very straightforward install, and the included remote bass knob is a life-saver for adjusting the volume on the fly depending on what I'm listening to. For a budget-friendly monoblock, it’s a total workhorse. ... show more

Great for the price
Style: 1600W Monoblock
So far I’ve used this amp for 1 month with a dual set of KIcker Comp R 12s. It works well. The subs sound great and half volume is more than good enough for all bassy songs. Full volume will shake the car next to you.

Off to a great start! I am impressed!!! Read on....6 years later now.
Style: 1600W Monoblock
Edit 2: read bottom of review..... This is my first real review here on amazon so it may have typos, (I'm on my phone) or not the greatest grammar. I just received my 1600 watt mono riot boss amp earlier today 8-2-2016 and proceeded to hook it up. Its being tested and used on the dual 12 Mtx Terminators and so far so good. Haven't done the fine tuning on it or my head unit yet but I have the gain set 2/5 and they sound great for no tuning. For the sake of my review I will start with my initial impression of the amp and update it after I fine tune them. Then 1 week later, and at last 3-6months later. So, let's start with the unboxing. I purchased the 1600 watt mono riot to power my Mtx dual 12 Terminators at 400rms. I did extensive research on this amp and realize BOSS greatly over exaggerates their watts and rms. So I based it off that the 1100 watt riot that can be bundled with the Mtx Terminators is only pushing around 250-300rms at 2ohms according to many reviews I have read. With that math, the 1600 watt amp should be around 360-450 rms at 2ohms. Which would match my subs perfect. And even if I'm wrong, it should be a decent amp to power them at the least, and was purchased at a great price. I purchased a used like new amp from the Amazon wherehouse and it's brand new except for the boss which has a few minor dings. Now, when I opened the box, I was very impressed tbh. It's heavy but not too heavy, feels of high quality materials and it even looks nice (apparently it glows blue where it says BOSS). The bass knob is kind of cheap looking, but at least it comes with one. It has the manual and a BOSS sticker for your car, high level inputs, 2 extra fuses at 25amps a piece and mounting brackets attached to the amp. I ran it earlier for around an hour at mid level volume and it stayed cool (which doesn't mean it won't overheat after extensive use) but off to a good start. It's also 88 degrees outside where I'm at. So I realize there isn't a whole lot to my review to base a real review off of but my initial impression warrants a 4stars. I will update my review in 1 week with more information on my experience with this amp. Edit: it's now been 5 days and it kicks like a champ. I found the sweet spot on my amp for the subs and it bumps. Ran it for over an hour at 3/4 volume and it only got a little bit hot. Nothing major. I am very impressed and will continue to adjust minor things as I feel I have broke my subs in. I do not use bass knob (it does work) but I feel like i have to put the knob higher up than the amp gain knob to get the same sound. It could be just me but whatever. Let's see how the next couple months go and I'll be back for my final thoughts. Still 4 stars and I highhly recommend this amp for budget builds or people on a budget. Also, it looks so dope at night when the amp lights up blue around the BOSS logo in the back of my jeep. Edit2: So amp still is running a few weeks later and has never overheated like some may say. It all depends on location, what it's powering and how hot it is in your area u live. But I've come to realize it sounds decent. Maybe I have gotten used to the bass but it doesn't kick as hard as I feel they can or others have stated with a different amp..once again I have the boss 1600mono amp class a/b powering 2 12 mtx terminators. I am going to purchase a new rockford Fosgate Amp 500w at 2 ohms and will update my review once I hear how it sounds in a few weeks. I have a feeling it's going to be much better sounding and might take a star off my review. Still a cheap priced amp for a cheap build. Also the price has risen to 77$ on amazon in the past few weeks...I bought it for 53$like new. So be careful. Edit 3: 6 years later it finally went died on me. A couple things I've learned over the years. 1. This amp (1600 watt) is only 500rms at 2ohms. Even then it might be less. 2. The price is at 110$ now which is double the price I spent, although 6 years ago. 3. It lasted through 3 cars, and multiple installs. Its a great amp for what you get and for a low rms low budget build. Stick to around 400-500rms. But with all ive learned from car audio, Skar is the best proce to performance out there. If you cant get Skar then this will do. ... show more

Boss Backed up their 1 year Warranty. ❤️
Style: 1600W Monoblock
I bought this 1600 watt amp this year in April. It started glitching out in November. I called the manufacturer (BOSS) here to see if I could get a replacement. They wanted screenshots of my purchase and order number via email. Passing those simple phases their next request was for me to Destroy my existing one and send them pictures of it. 😳 I called them to confirm and so I did and they emailed me that a new or refurbished one was leaving Oxnard California, tracking code through fed ex and 4 days later I had a brand new amplifier. Back in business! 👍 They back up their word. I slightly think my original amp might have started glitching on my end because I originally installed amp on sub box to save space. Which can rattle components within the amp more than it should. Learning curve for me but Boss took care of me and I appreciate them and this affordable amp. Thank you. ... show more

The most honest review. Love the product
Style: 1600W Monoblock
So I had the boss riot 1100 on my boss 800 watts 10in sub running on my stock radio (18 nissan rogue). The 1100 was nice but it wasn't pumping out bass strong enough for my liking. So after a week of having that one, I decided to upgrade to this one (1600). Now dont expect it to b 1600 watts because it's not gonna pump that out. If u know in the amplifier world they hype up the watts to make sale. Always go by the fuses. Now this have 2x 25 fuses, so expect to pump out like 300-400 watts rms . Maybe a little less than that. But over all this amp pushing alot more better than the 1100. If expect to shake the car hard and the neighborhood, it wont. But it will rattle the seats and mirrors hard lol. It's very low profile which I like. It dont shake the truck too much but then again I'm driving a crossover/light suv pushing a single10in. Now it do gets warm, sometimes hot but I had to call boss to see if it do get hot or warm and they told me yes it will but it shouldn't go into protection mood if your gains are right and your ground is too. Overall I'm satisfied with what I got. I will probably upgrade one more time to the boss riot 2000 in later months with one 12in sub but if u thinking about getting the 1100 jus spend that extra 20-30$ and get the 1600 or extra 10$ from 1600 and get the 2000 watts if u want it to hit hard like I do. ... show more

I bought the Riot R1600M about 3 years ago. Still pushing my subs hard, I'm running 3 2ohm 10inch subs with it. Works perfect. Great price for the power. Looks great with the LEDs in the BOSS logo, blue.

Da los watts rms que anuncia!!!

Tengo una bocina skar audio 12 de 600 watts rms, conecte los 2 bobinas en paralelo para así lograr los 2 ohms y sacar todo lo que ofrece este amplificador, y no logra mover con mucha fuerza está bocina, parece como si estuviera entregado alrededor de 250-300 watts como máximo a 2 ohms, por el mismo precio es mejor buscar en otro lado donde encontrarás amplificadores con 400 rms reales, este te lo garantizo que no llega ni a 300, en fin si lo quieres para algo como acompañar un subwoofer con los parlantes de el estéreo de tu coche me parece bien, si se empareja, pero si tienes un amplificador de 350x4 para medios y altos tenlo por seguro que se va a quedar muy corto, asta aquí con mi reseña! ... show more
