New member Username: ShampcPost Number: 2 Registered: Feb-07 | The reason i'm upgrade is because i've done a great mistake (din't check the spec though) on my current 4ch amp which is Alpine MRP-F250 (check this out : http://www.alpine-usa.com/US-en/products/product.php?model=MRP-F250) The amp rated 4 x 40wrms @ 4ohm but my component is 75wrms.. Because of this stupidity i've make, during installation, i've to bridge using "Y" cable from HU to That amp to get 100wrms then connected to Alpine Type X passive xover. The result, the no separation in sound rather than Loud and mixed sound. Two weeks ago i've try to match my component speaker (Alpine SPX-177R) to a used Rockford Fosgate old model modified (40i & 100i). It a decent amplifier anyway but dont have variable control (high pass & low pass only. So now, after i've make a research. I've shortlisted 2 amps which is : 1) Genesis Series III 4ch amp (http://genesis-ice.com/) 2) Steg Competition K4.02 (http://www.audio-system.de/steg/k_steg.html) Even though the Genesis Series III 4 ch amp is only rate at 4 x 50wrms @4ohm the true power is 4 x 90wrms @4ohm. It's under rated same as old RF amp. Steg on the otherway is good amp rated at 4 x 115wrms @ 4ohm. But Genesis outperform Steg in term of their reputation in design decent amplifier. So the decision here is clear...Genesis Series III 4 ch amp..not buy yet since some people say this amp is not match my component speaker. (Decent amp match with normal entry level SQ speaker = not worth it) The reason i open this thread is to get opinion from Car Audio those with experience. So that i'll not make 2nd mistake with my 1st 4ch amp.... |
