DS18’s H-KO8 is a high-performance, Korean-made powerhouse perfect for bassheads who want perfect performance. With an underrated MAX power output of 8000W, the H-KO8 drives even the most demanding subwoofers. And thanks to advanced Class-D technology, it operates efficiently and generates less heat than traditional amplifiers, so your listening sessions never have to end.
The H-KO8 also includes several useful features that help you monitor its performance and ensure that your system is running optimally. The built-in volt meter monitors the voltage of your car's electrical system, while the temperature meter monitors the internal temperature of the amplifier. And with the clip indicator, you can avoid damaging your subwoofers and guarantee cleaner and clearer performance.
The H-KO8 is also designed to be easy to install and use. Its compact and durable aluminum chassis withstands the rigors of daily use, and includes all the necessary mounting hardware needed for a secure installation. With customizable features, such as the variable low-pass filter, you can fine-tune the frequency response to match specific subwoofers and enclosures.
DS18’s H-KO8 is the perfect choice for outstanding performance and reliability.
