Quick Review

A great looking 5 channel amplifier, the Kenwood Excelon X700-5 will power your system with 40 watts RMS to each four speakers and up to 500 watts RMS for your subwoofer. It offers a 3-channel mode if you want to turn it into a 100 watt x 2 channel + 500 watts x 1 channel amplifier, in case you have powerful component speakers up in the front. The unique design of the amplifier and aluminum heatsink allows the Kenwood Excelon X700-5 to operate efficiently and reduce distortion, pulling the heat from the internals to the outer heatsink. It has high pass (HP) and low pass (LP) filters allowing you to tailor the sound of your speakers and subwoofer to the optimum performance.
