PioneerGM-D9701 2400W Max 1-Channel GM Digital Champion Series Class-D Monoblock Car Audio Stereo Amplifier w/Wired Bass Boost Remote and Free Alphasonik Erabuds

It's nice to see a "budget" amplifier perform well. This Pioneer GM-D9601 is rated to deliver 800 watts RMS at 2 ohms or 1200 watts RMS at 1 ohm. I have the luxury of a machine capable of testing amplifiers and I showed the following results:806w @ 2 ohms (up to 1% THD), 14.14Vdc, 83.8A current draw1206w @ 1 ohm (up to 1% THD), 13.85Vdc, 122.6A current draw1768w @ 1 ohm (dynamic power), 14.18VdcAll tests were at 40Hz, much lower than the manufacturers rated measurements at 100Hz (and more difficult on the amp). The specs provided by Pioneer also stated their measurements were obtained 14.4Vdc. As you can see by my measurements, I still got rated power at less voltage. This is a good thing!Amp did well, exceeded ratings, seems to be very well built. You can see my full review on YouTube under username BigDWiz. Just search for Pioneer GM-D9601 Amp Dyno test and it should be the top result.Great amp for the $$ here. Good job Pioneer!

My first amp failed but the seller was quick to respond to my request of a new amp. Great seller and great amp! Thank You!Edit. Replacement amplifier still going strong. 2 out of 2 original amplifiers failed. That makes 2 failed amps out of 3. Terrible. DO NOT BUY.One of the original amplifiers had the blue light come on and low sound output. I sent it back when I noticed that. Got a replacement.Second original amplifier, I noticed a couple days ago no longer has the blue power light on. A month or so ago I noticed less sound like the old one. Thought nothing of it, well now the amp is dead.Still have it wired into my car, so I'm hoping to remove it soon.Since it is now out of warranty, I'm planning on repairing it myself. I will post pictures of repairs made, with replacement parts linked.Hopefully it doesn't burn my car down by the time I have a chance to take it out. Since that seems to be what happened to one guy.Never mind my bad. Fuses went bad (have had two out of four shorted subsoofers all along killing amps.)Awesome amplifiers! Highly recommend. Going on 2 years strong now. Bumping harder then ever.

Small powerful amplifier.. punch badly my single subwoofer mohawk mt1222 dual 2 ohm wired into 1ohm.. remote bass knob work perfectly and increased the bass.. amps not get warm if use properly grounding wire.. i use 4awg welding grounding wire made in usa.. recommended 👍👍👍👍👍

Great little amp! Make no mistake, even though this amp is compact, it really packs a punch. Makes my dual voice coil 18 inch sub thump! The settings are really precise and you can really dial in what frequency and gain you want. I didn't think I needed the external remote gain but when I installed it and turned it up it really made a difference. My car now rattles and bumps, and now I need to buy some sound deadener material to clean up the bass. Would buy again, really good value for the price.

This amp honestly sucks I've had two of this same amp now, the first one burned my subwoofers than caught on fire itself, and this current one burned my subwoofers that have a higher Wattage than the amp can produce and the bass level on the amp is set to its lowest setting, I just bought a new amp to replace this one and went back with Sony like I use to use before I had this amp the sound quality is much greater and a lot more clear still using the same subwoofers too the warranty on them replaced them for me and the new amp I can set the bass level up higher without it damaging my subwoofers.

I purchased based on a few amp dyno reviews. It puts out pretty close to rated RMS power at 1OHM. Durring initial setup and tuning a internal electronic exploded. My guess is a capacitor failed. I replaced it with the same amp with no changes to wiring all sounds good! Would have been 5 stars if it wasn't DOA but at this price point it is hard to complain. it is powering a pair of Skar audio VD10s D4 ohm subs in a 1 CU ft sealed box. Very clean power.The highs:Compatible with high voltage (speaker level inputs) and low voltage RCAsBass knobSmall form factor for 1200+ wattsBuilt in ATX fuses for extra protectionRuns very cool even behind truck seats

Used it for 2 months and sold it at a 30% profit to someone who heard it in my car.💰💸💵🤑

First off... the shipper failed BIG time. I paid for next day shipping and placed my order at 7am on a Tuesday. I received it Thursday at 8pm.They shipped the amplifier without boxing it. Just slapped my address on the Pioneer box and dropped it in the mail. My amp got to me ripped open and the box taped from the inside in multiple places. Also missing the bass boost knob and cord. The top had a few scratches but I wet sanded and re-clearcoated it.I reached out to Amazon and they made it right though. I was on a time crunch to get this thing in so I told them I'd rather see if it worked... the rest could be worked out if it did..... AND OH DID IT WORK!! I'm running the GM-D9601 at 2 OHM pushing 2 Memphis Audio 10inch M5's. I have another 5 channel Pioneer pushing 2 shallow mount 10 inch pioneer and 6 Tsm650pro's... I got the amp installed and straight SLAMMED it for 2 hours straight... not ONE clip and the amp was at most warm to the touch... this thing is SO worth the money. I ran 0 gauge and used a distribution block to run power to both amps, both receiving 0 gauge connection. If planning to take 0 gauge to the amp, be sure to order a reducer.
