First impression is that they look much better in person than in the pictures I have seen online... On Mmats site they have a smooth grey-ish look to them, but they are actually a textured black.
The covers can be flipped with the four allen bolts, so the logos face the same direction if you need to reverse them.
These are the Hifi6150 and the M2000.2:
I have had multiple emails with the president of the company, David Thompson, and he has been very quick to respond and extremely helpful. He even had the SoCal Director of Sales contact me to offer his help if I were to need it and to makes sure that "I had a good experience ordering through my local dealer..."
So far I am very impressed with the company and I can't wait to get these amps installed!!!
Nice. Can you take a close up of the speaker connector of the 6150? That’s the only criticism I can come up with, everything else looks great on those amps.

Sure thing, here ya go... That is probably my least favorite feature, but I guess it's kind of nice to be able to unplug speaker wires really quick without mixing them up.
Btw, I did just pull one out and they are super tight. I'd say it will take a 14 gauge wire comfortably.

I actually like phoenix connectors like that over set screws for speakers. Especially with the prevalence of CCA wire its less likely to break in terminals like that without having to use ferrules.
Agree with the OP. My exterience with MMATS has been top notch.
Right from pre-purchase when I was asking them a lot of questions, to their hassle free delivery to Canada.
The amps are solid. I've had mine for a couple years now. No issues (other than I just replaced the fans in both of them).
When the amps are new, the fans are dead silent. But after about 6 months, they start to get noisey.
I like how they don't fuck around... and just use a power block as the speaker output on their mono sub amps!
Effectively, you could whack a 4awg pair of cables in there, and use them for speaker wire!
4awg speaker wire...
The speaker blocks can take up to 12awg (tested and verified). I've never had one pull out. They're in there tight.

Good to know, thanks! The Mmats website does claim it will fit up to a 12 gauge, too...
I'm using 14 gauge on my speakers now, but 12 on my subs (which obviously won't be an issue with the M2000.2
On a different note
IMHO, the Hifi6150 is a nearly perfect one amp solution for a 2way and sub with great ouput! 4 x 150 Watts RMS @ 4 ohms + 1000 Watts RMS @ 1 ohm mono
And it's small enough to fit in most installs.
I'm assuming this question was for me. I have an Arc 1200.6, the amp has 3 on-board 30 amp fuses.......I don't see any on-board fuses on Matts amps so that's what I was asking about.
I also have mini anl fuses at the +ve battery post connection and also at my distro block but this wasn't what i was inquiring about, was about the onboard fuses on the amp itself.

Well, it was actually meant for JimmyDee as he already has these amps... I'm trying figure out what style fuses I am gonna use. They might be visible on my amp rack, so they need to look pretty good.
You could use a fused distribution block like the KnuKonceptz Bassik 3-way. You can also just go without one. It isn't necessary. The amp has a protection mode that will cut it off if it surges. The fuse is for the wire, which you already have at your battery. So as long as the run of your wire from distro block to amp can handle the amperage of the fuse at the battery you are fine.
For example, you fused at your battery 200A for a 20' run of 1/0 but you use 4ga from block to amp. While 4ga couldn't handle 200a on a 20' run, it could handle it on a 3' run. So another fuse on the 4ga line is not necessary in this case. But if you have a 300A fuse at the battery, then you'd want a lower amp fuse on the 3' run of 4ga.

I used those in my distro for years and prefer them to be honest. Still use one under the hood. Only using AGU fuses now because I needed a new block to replace my 10 y/o MAXI one and the one given to me takes AGU fuses.
G'day, I've been lurking/learning for a while. Looking at updating my old 2005 era system. Wife bought me a Dayton 408 DSP for Christmas so I figured no better time than now.
Looking for opinions: Keep my old 1.0 farad cap or ditch it? Electrical is stock F150 but doing the big 3 this week...
Doesn't it freaking kill you guys when manufacturers don't list this number ???
Urgggghhh !
I get that it will be different depending on how the sub is mounted, face mounted, back mounted, etc, but this info is SO important, they need to tell me the displacement mounted 9 different freaking...
Is there anyone here that could tell me how to make a loop back harness for a 2015 gmc Sierra double non Bose? I have the two metra 71-2107 & 70-2057 connectors
Hello,
new here, so I apologize if this is in the wrong section.
I own a 2006 BMW m3 with a factory radio head unit (non-navigation). Being built after 2002, this head unit has the capability of connecting an iPhone via a cable. The cables runs from the back of the head unit to a iPhone 30 pin...
Hello, I've had an Alpine cda-9805 head unit in my car for a while and am getting ready to add an amplifier. I've noticed the 16-pin wire harness that came with (I bought it used) and the new aftermarket replacement harness from amazon, ebay, etc, are missing the blue/white remote turn-on wire...
