That would make a good paper weight , thats about it .

dude, read the specs:


RMS Power (4 ohms) 75 watts x 4 channels
RMS Power (2 ohms) 100 watts x 4 channels
RMS Power (1 ohm) Not Stable
Bridged RMS Power 200 watts x 2 channels
Total RMS Power 400 watts
Peak Power Output 1600 watts

Peak power is not what you look at when buying an amp, RMS is the number you care about.
You would be better off using a week old bag full of dog poo.

we gotta know more information to help you out. what do you need to power? one sub or 2? 2 speakers or 4? what kind of speakers? RMS on them? kind of sub(s)? RMS on them too? if you are on a budget, look at older MTX amps (i can help you once I know more) I have purchased a couple off ebay and so has my cousin, and we have never had problems with them. they have to be the older ones tho. the new MTX amps arent as good.
