Silver Member Username: Jwbulger79Florida Post Number: 411 Registered: Nov-04 | jeff's right. better amps will require less power than lower-end ones. my memphis amp (380 watts) is extremely efficient. my 4runner has a 50A alt and my lights don't dim the least bit even at full volume with the a/c on. i couldnt believe it; i thought i would definitely need a new alt with the stock one being so puny. you may want to consider this one if you are looking at soundstream and dont want to upgrade your alt. it's more expensive, but it will put less strain on your electrical system and sound much better. |

I"m looking at maybe a hifonics amp. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_3490.html could i wire down to 1ohm?? |

It is a very good amp and you can get them for around 200-250 on ebay. I would do that if it were me. |
