I just bought 2 Kicker CVR-10 and am planning on getting a pair of Rainbow Germaniums and SL's

My Question is what kinda amp should I get. Im not an expert on this subject but correct me if Im wrong, I can either get 1-4 channel amp or 2-2 channel amps. I heard I'd be better off with 2-2 channel amps. What do you guys think and what amp(s) should I get? Thank!

 

Generally, for the cleanest sound get the largest amount of power you can afford, and you probably already know that means RMS power, not Max.

The 4 channel amp, you'd probably make three channel, bridging two to power your subs, depending on how large the amp is. The other 2 channels then would go to passive crossovers as example for your left and right mids and tweets, one channel each.

SQ wise it shouldn't make a difference whether it's one amp or two. But power/physical size/location wise it can mean a world of difference. So a lot of the decision is the install requirements, and your system requirements...and your pocketbook.

You may be able to do the same thing cheaper with a 2 channel for your mids and tweets and a dedicated sub amp. Then you have to locate two subs and extra wiring to power them.

My 2 cents
