New member Username: JmillerPost Number: 9 Registered: Nov-04 | I just install 4 Polk DB650 60 RMS on my 04 accord sedan, they sound nice but they definitely need more power than what they are getting from the HU. I know I need an AMP but I'm on a budget. I would like to get your opinion on a Clarion APA450 50x4 for $90. I know nothing about AMP so I'll trust your judgements. Thank |

New member Username: JmillerPost Number: 10 Registered: Nov-04 | Thank you GlassWolf. Which one you recomend from JBL? I was also looking at a MTX Thunder404 for about $165 but after buying gifts for everybody else, I have very litle money to buy one for me. Enjoy the holidays. |

Gold Member Username: GlasswolfNorthWest, Michigan USA Post Number: 6852 Registered: Dec-03 | the MTX is a great amplifier. I figured it might be a bit out of your price range, but I wasn't sure what the 404 was running now street price. check websites for the best prices on this stuff, like etronics.com far cheaper than retail stores. the JBL GTO series amplifiers are really nice, and reasonably priced. I don't have the model handy for the 4 channel amps of theirs though. www.jbl.com has all the specs though. then just search etronics for a price. that'll give ya a feel for what they have and if it fits your needs. |
