Brother's Amp

Post by captaincheesey »

My brother has an old Kicker IX252, and I was wondering what kind of worth you would put on that? It is older. He tried to tell me it put out 252 watts at 2 channels, and won't accept that is it actually 25 watts at 2 channels.

well you'll be happy to hear that you were right about the output 25x2 @4 ohms and keep in mind that these amps only sold for around $125.00 new, so he really shouldn't be looking to get much out of it.

yeah he wont get much out of it.. maybe enough to fill both your gas tanks up, lol... even though it doesnt put out much power, you might be able to use it for a speaker amp.. but it probably wouldnt be worth it..

Yeah, for some reason he thinks it is so great. So yeah, now that I have even more confirmation that I am right, I'll just let him babble.
