LOL, Oh yeah it is loud, I am using a rumble road 40 watt amp with 40 watt west marine speakers, (painted chrome) I have to tell you it's not the size of the amp that gives you good sound but how well you have the amp and speakers matched. You can turn the volume as loud as you want and will not distort, This is one loud unit been using the same setup for the last 5 years. You really need to hear it to believe.
