## Description

The Skar Audio SK-M5001D is an ultra compact, "mini", Class D monoblock car subwoofer amplifier. The SK-M5001D was engineered to be compact, but provide the power and reliability expected out of larger amplifiers. Featuring a high speed MOSFET power supply, and an efficient Class D design, this amplifier is powerful, reliable, and extremely versatile. The SK-M5001D makes for a great amplifier in applications where space is limited but power cannot be sacrificed. In addition, this monoblock subwoofer amplifier features high level input connections for those installations that lack an RCA connection. Further adding to the feature rich list of this amplifier are its gain, subsonic, and low-pass user control filters. Utilizes 8 Gauge Power and Ground Input Terminals. Amplifier dimensions: 7.9in x 4.6in x 1.7in (L x W x H)

Review: Powerful, Clean, and Compact 🔥 - This Skar Audio SK-M4004D amp is a beast in a small package — delivers crisp, distortion-free sound and plenty of power for all four channels. It runs cool, fits anywhere, and really wakes up your speakers. Perfect mix of size, strength, and quality. 💪
Review: Great deal for Mini Amp! - I ran this mini 500W amp through my tests including RMS Power output tests using the SMD Amp Dyno. The little Skar amp performed as advertised, no surprises. Skar has an Amp Dyno as well and confirms their ratings with all of their amplifiers. See the attached image of the Amp Dyno results if you're interested in the numbers. You can also see the size comparison to the Sundown SAM-500D, which is not only quite a bit more expensive, but also has the marine coating on the board (whereas the Skar does not). That said, I'd be careful using this Skar SK-M5001D in any environment where getting wet is a possibility. It's better suited for small spaces inside the vehicle. The amp powered the custom 600 watt 12" subwoofer (D2) in the acrylic enclosure with no issues. Sound was deep and dynamic with plenty of output. I also had a technician review the internal components and minus the old design of the driver card with known overheating problems, the amp was given a passing rating. Overall great value for the money. Dereck from Williston Audio Labs

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I gotta admit this amp is a lot of bang for the buck.
*by N***5 on April 27, 2024*

As someone who has been into car audio for several decades I was very skeptical that this amp would perform for this low of a price. I read reviews and watched YouTube vids of amp dynos and this amp is legit. It puts out more power and sound than my alpine amp I replaced with it and for a fraction of the cost. It’s definitely worth the money and it performs very well. I haven’t had any problems with it so far and it hasn’t shut down from heat or anything either. I’m pretty impressed and I think you will be too. I’m definitely recommending it and if you’re on the fence about it, go for it.
