I've been out of the car audio game for a few years now, but I recently got out of school and have a job. Job = Money = Upgrade car audio. I have some Infinity Kappa 6.5" components that are 90W @ 2 ohms and I'm looking for an amp to power them, and possibly a set for the rear. I was considering the following: INFINITY 475A - 90Wx4 @ 2ohms, $175 RE Audio XT800.4 V3 - 100Wx4 @ 2ohms, $150 MB Quart ONX4.80 - 160Wx4 @ 2ohms, $150 HIFONICS HFI55.4 - 110Wx4 @ 2ohms, $160 HIFONICS HFi HFI100.4 - 200Wx4 @ 2ohms, $170 Some of the amps put out more power than I need but it gives me room for speaker upgrades in the future. I was just wondering if these are decent amps and if anyone has had experience with them. I'm not sure if the brands that were "good" a few years ago have changed, or if the prices given seem fair for the quality. Just looking for some input from some people who know what they are talking about, and this site has been great for that in the past. Also, if anyone would recommend any other amp around that price range, I'd appreciate the suggestions. |

If you at some point consider subs a monoblock can be considered as a second amp. Infinity speakers are known to deliver little bass-midbass. |

So if I were to also get a Fi Q15 with dual 2 ohm voice coil, wired parallel thats 1500W RMS @ 1 ohm, would the MB Quart ONX1.1500D be a suitable amp? Then I'd be able to purchase the 4 channel amp and an amp for a sub and save on shipping. |
