im currently building my system (slowly) and i am now ready to turn my attention towards an amp.
im likely going to run 1. its going to run my door components and subs.

the components are:
audiobahn ABC600Q's with tweeters
280 watts MAX @ 4 OHMS
sensitivity 91DB
30HZ-25KHZ

i dont know much about the subs but these are the ones i bought and im awaiting for them to arrive.

is it possible to run 1 AMP and run all this? if so, may i have some part #'s or even a link?
not looking for the best of the best, just something reliable and hope it last a while.
any help is app.
thanks!

 

just so you know, i cannot WAIT, to listen to this:
metallica and justice for all
in it.

 

you mean run 1 ohm? and yes you could but 4ohms would be a little more efficient IMO. For the subs you could get a Kenwood KAC-9105d Sonic Electronix has an open box one for 169.99 in there closeouts, or a Kenwood KAC-7205 Sonic also has an open box one of these for 109.99, and for the components a Hifonics HFi100.2 or a Kicker 08ZX200.2 would work. These are all good choices that would work well and feed enough power, but Im sure there are other choices that are just as good. these are some of my favorites.

 

sorry, worked alot of hours recently...run a single amp for the whole system (door speakers and subs).

 

You're looking for a 5-channel amplifier. There are lots of good ones out there, my personal favorite is the Alpine PDX-5 or even the PDX-5M. I put a 5M in a golf cart the other day with a full set of Alpine components and Marine 10" Type R subs. It sounded awesome! I will say though, that amplifier is expensive. Honestly, I'd suggest you get two amplifiers (one for your subs, another for your doors) only if you're not fighting for room to mount the amplifier. But if you fancy the all-in-one, then do a lot of shopping! Find what suits your power needs, style, size, features, and price.

 

yeah I thought about the one amp, but One single amp with enough power to push 2 subs and door speakers is pretty expensive.

 

Most quality amplifiers are expensive. Amps are the one area you can't really go cheap and get quality, you gotta shell out the bucks unless you get something used.

 

i see. actually the reason i was thinking "ill run 1 amp" was because i thought it would be cheaper. i have no preference in brands or models...just a decent amp(s) that i dont have to spend alot on.
should i stick to the first person that replied suggestions?
im looking for something thats gonna sound really clear and have some good "fill" in bass. some mirror rattle is always a bonus to!

 

A 5-channel amplifier can run you about as much as getting a single-channel amp and a 4-channel amp. Also, consider this! If you get one amplifier, and something breaks, everything could go. Where as if you get two amps, and you blow out your amplifier, you'll still have sound. I dunno, it's just how I've always percieved integrated units, like when those combo VHS and DVD units came out, I always hated those, and hated seeing them be returned. Like mSaLL150 said, you can't go cheap with amplifiers. A "cheap" amp could give you false numbers, crappy electronic components, premature shutdown issues, or poor warranty. Everyone has their preference of brand names, but personally I've always loved Alpine, Rockford, MTX, Digital Designs, Kicker, Image Dynamics, JBL, and JL amplifiers. Always had great luck with all of those.

 

thanks for the tips!
maybe ill start hunting and then post what i find...
