 BOSS Audio R1004Now we will have look at an alternative, the BOSS Audio R1004.


Taking a closer look at the features of the BOSS Audio AR1500M

For a direct comparison whilst the other is fresh in your mind, here's a quick look at a slightly higher powered option from one of BOSSs other popular lines-The Armor series. It should probably come as no surprise that BOSS is featured on our list, whilst we are on the subject we should probably give you a quick heads up that we have included a fair few BOSS products in this article.


A good look at the BOSS Audio R1004

Back to another extremely low-priced option from BOSS Audio, which is a pretty astounding amplifier. We honestly don’t know how they manage to offer up, a top quality, multi-channel amp, with pristine Class A/B circuitry for next to no investment.

HEAD TO HEAD COMPARISON

BOSS Audio AR1500M

BOSS Audio R1004

KEY FEATURES

:
+ Bass EQ.
+ Affordable option.
+ Switchable bass boost.
+ High output (1500 watts).
+ Intelligent protection.

:
+ 2/4 channel option
+ 400 watts max output.
+ Short protection.
+ Very low priced.

WHAT OUR TEAM THOUGHT

It is a solid choice for a mono amplifier, it provides meaty low ends and means business.

It is incredibly priced for a 4 channel option, it competes with some amplifiers 3 or 4 times its price, but the lack of a low pass filter control could be a deal-breaker for some of you, regardless it makes our list as a top option.
