Kenwood KAC-835 Class D 5-Channel Power Amplifier

Looking to get more muscle behind your music? The Kenwood KAC-835 Class D 5-Channel Power Amplifier brings serious power and clean, high-resolution audio to your ride. Whether you’re thumping basslines or chasing crisp highs, this compact beast is ready to breathe new life into your car audio system.

Built to Bring the Boom

This amp packs a massive punch with a max power output of 1600 watts. That’s not just loud—it’s concert-level energy right in your car. You’ve got 75W x 4 RMS at 4 ohms for your mids and highs, plus a dedicated subwoofer channel that cranks out 300W RMS at 4 ohms. Drop the resistance to 2 ohms and you’re looking at 75W x 4 plus a subwoofer thumping at 500W. That’s the kind of headroom your system has been begging for.

High-Resolution Audio for the Win

The Kenwood KAC-835 isn’t just loud—it’s smart. It’s certified for High-Resolution Audio, meaning it can play back frequencies and details most amps can’t even touch. Think of it like watching 4K video compared to standard definition—but for your ears. From ultra-low rumbles to shimmering highs, everything comes through with unbelievable clarity.

Clean Signals, No Nonsense

Under the hood, this amp uses high-quality polymer multi-layer capacitors (PMLCAPs) to keep distortion in check. Add in an output coil with magnetic shielding, and you’re looking at a seriously clean signal with reduced noise. Translation? Your music sounds exactly like it should—pure, powerful, and precise.

Smart Design That Works for You
