Most amps are MOSFET circuits now. the dif between the amp in the pio and a seperate amp is that the pio does not and can not have the capacity of a sep amp. An amp needs capacitors to handle loud demands placed on it. Like when those bass notes hit. thats why you see the lights dim on a deck trying to push too hard

Post MOSFET Vs. Separate Amp

Well my friends, I'm really liking my sounds system right now, but I know I'm still missing two parts. Speakers, and and amp?

The question is the amp, I just had my Pioneer DEH-P6300 HU installed which has in integated 50-x4way MOSFET amp. first of all, what is MOSFET?
Secondly, would I notice a difference in sound quality if I added another, say 125x4-way amp?
Thanks

Well, I That's not really a problem for me, I don't blare it that loud. I have an amp for the sub and that's all it powers so I'm pretty well taken care of. If that was a prob with the sub, I'd prob just look at buying a capicitor, as it is rare I have it THAT loud. Thanks though
