I own one. Its an older amd IMO "better", discontinued model and powered my 10w3's pretty good darn good when I gave it a go. I bought it primarally as a mid/high amp so if you you plan on eventually upgrading your sub/amp it'll do great on a set of components(75x2 @ 12.5 volts 4 ohms). That thing listed at nearly 400 bucks and is a steal at $99. Etronics doesn't sell used or refurbished items so as far as a good "bang for a buck" amp I think its hard to beat. -Fishy |

Just stay away from the flea market stuff. Here a list that might help: http://www.caraudiocentral.net/forums/showthread.php?t=32 For two hundred dollars you might be able to pick up a good used monoblock which produces 600w at 2 ohm and 300w at 4. That way you'd be set for power if you ever wanted to upgrade: Like this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=64573%26item%3D5769134386 %26 or this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=18796%26item%3D5768941714 %26 I've seen a few new, discontinued 600w Xtant A6001's(titanium color/edition) floating around ebay for around $200 which would work good as well. -Fishy |
