Expert Verdict (2026) - Why Buy?
"The Kenwood Excelon Reference XR601-1 is a masterclass in ultra-compact, high-fidelity bass amplification. At Lockdown Security, we highly recommend this monoblock for drivers who want premium, hard-hitting bass performance without sacrificing valuable cabin or trunk space. Measuring less than 9 inches wide and a mere 1.4 inches tall, this stealthy powerhouse drops right under seats or into tight storage panels with ease. Despite its small footprint, it carries the prestigious 'Excelon Reference' badge, meaning it uses elite, hand-selected internal capacitors and inductors. It delivers a certified, rock-solid 600 Watts RMS at 2 ohms with a specialized layout that slashes system noise by up to 40%, ensuring your subwoofers receive nothing but pure, unadulterated power."
This is the Kenwood eXcelon XR601-1 Class D mono car stereo amplifier. It is specifically designed to be used as an amplifier to power a subwoofer.

Quick Response
Had good experience a few years ago with parking sensor installs (front and rear) for 2 cars. Just got 2 dashcams installed. Duane gave quick responses online with a very reasonable price. Both cars, front and rear cams installed professionally and looks seamless (tech was very informative). Leo and Titus - front desk - took care of things efficiently, answered all my questions in a friendly manner. Got my cars back in the time specified. Very good selection, service, installation.

Extremely Professional
Everyone at Lockdown was extremely professional, knowledgeable and pleasant. They also had the additional hardware I needed rather than ordering it separately beforehand. Leonardo was very patient answering my questions and going through how to set up and use my new Dashcam. Sal was great going over the installation process and asking me questions how I wanted it installed. I would highly recommend their services.

Awesome Experience
Just installed the thinkware q200 dashcam today with awesome experience. Booking the appointment is easy and service is excellent. After the installation, staff also walked me through the set up and everything is done within 2 hours. The cost is same as the website shows and no other hidden cost. Highly recommended. 👍
