If there was a recall I never got a notice or heard about it.

Liking mine so far.

Any time you have have a power wire next to your frame put some rubber hosing (or cut up an innertube) around it. The wire is bound to wiggle (due to driving or flex) and the casing will eventually wear through.

I havent heard anything on a said recall, I found 1 thread on ca.com with saying its recalled, but its a fail thread with pretty much no info but hearsay from one person that heard it from another, who told the one that posted it. Or something like that, but no proof to back it up.

However,im pretty sure they have discontinued the warhorse.

edit: oh and that thread dates back to 2009......

i wouldnt...i heard their weird to operate...look into a DC 9k or 12k. or American Bass or Cactus if you want big power..may be a little more money but it would def be worth it

The warhorse is a good amp but is a fucking royal pain in the ASS! First off it is power hungry. Plan on needing dual alts and a large battery bank(6 XS D3100s). If you dont have extensive knowledge of this amplifier already then I am going to recommend that you stay away from it. I had one and ran it for just over a year and never could get it to perform just the way I wanted to. There also is a reason that they are so cheap right now, I believe kicker has discontinued them and was just selling off all of their old stock that has been sitting around the warehouse for years to dealers for $1000 each. For my money I would go with DC 9k or AB 1100.1.

^^^What he said...I've had the opportunity of playing around w/ one of these before, and I hated it. IDK the specs on the warhorses, but take a look at this AQ20K. Not sure what you are looking to power, but these were tested at 8000w at 1ohm, and I know for a fact AQ's can be run .5ohms daily.
