With its 1000-watt capacity and full-range class D technology, it offers a significant upgrade from the Rockford Fosgate amplifier that one customer replaced. The reviewer described it as a "bulletproof amp" and expressed their satisfaction with the product. However, another reviewer had a different experience. They encountered severe engine noise and high-pitched noise when using the amplifier. Despite attempts to resolve the issue by grounding and rerouting cables, the problem persisted. They eventually took it to a car audio professional who concluded that the amplifier was picking up electric frequencies nearby. As a result, the customer decided to switch to a Rockford Fosgate amplifier, which solved the problem. In terms of performance, the CT Sounds CT-800.5D impressed with its mids and highs, outshining the JBL setup that one customer previously had. The sub channel, while not extremely powerful, blended well with the overall sound. The customer particularly appreciated the smooth crossovers, avoiding any harshness or clipping. One downside of the CT Sounds amplifier is its tendency to get hot. It is crucial to provide ample space for ventilation to avoid voiding the warranty. Additionally, for those who enjoy deep bass, the sub channel might not be sufficient. The customer expressed a desire for a few hundred more watts in the sub channel. Overall, the CT Sounds CT-800.5D 5-Channel Car Amplifier offers excellent quality and performance. It delivers impressive mids and highs, although the sub channel may not satisfy individuals looking for powerful bass. The amplifier's durability and quality make it a worthwhile purchase for the price.
