Affirmative, it's a POS. How many speakers do you have? And what is the power rating of them? Need more info if we are going to help you find an amp.

Aiight sorry totally forgot to put that up heh, I have a pair of Infinity Perfect 6.1's in the front, i think they are like 100 watt RMS max, and in the back i have KAPPAS 6x9 693.5i's those are 110 Rms max. Looking to only spend under 200 bucks on an amp if thats possible at all other wise just name some decent ones around that range. Thank!!

OK, so then look for an amp that does 4x100 wrms @ 4-ohms. For $200 or less, you may want to look into getting an ebay account if you don't already. And you may have to go used as well.

Thanks, so if say i got an amp that was 4x75 wrms @4 ohms would ther be a noticeable difference in sound? ALso on average, i listen to my music pretty loud i wouldnt say loud enough so that everyone around can hear me, but at what wattage do u think (just an estimate) i would be using? Thanks

Yes, that would be a great amp for the price. You might go a little over your price budget, but you won't be sorry you did. That will sound HOT!

the kicker.

phoenix digital is another bottom feeder company trying to look good by stealing a name similar to a better brand (phoenix gold) in much the same way as rockwood (rockford fosgate/kenwood) and soundstorm (soundstream)
stay away from that paperweight crap

That's what I meant, Kicker! LOL. Yes, Pheonix Digital is crap, I can see where you got confused when I said that. :-) Look for a used 800.4 on ebay.

How about this one http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem%26item%3D5791493768&category=79823 %26%26

Im thinking i can run the back speakers off the head unit and then just run the perfects off the amp. Would this be a decent amp cause its def in my price range, and it offeres 75 rms x4. Tell me which is best ty

that kx600.4 is a great little amplifier, and it'd drive all 4 speakers in the car just fine
