First ever amplifier

Im not familiar with the Kenwood h/u the OP has, but it is no longer safe to assume h/u amplifiers only put out 15-20 watts. Some h/u's come with a MOSFET amplifier these days and actually can put out close to 50 watts per channel, and I consider a great option for people just dabbling in car audio and dont want a dedicated external mid/highs amplifier.

There's one mfg I'm aware of with that feature -- Sony - a couple of their $200-250 models.  Are there others?

It's a 15w HU unless stated otherwise.

Well Ive been out of the car audio game for a while so brand specific questions Im not very good at, but it was Pioneer who first came out with MOSFET h/u's. Kenwood and a couple others had followed suit by the time I stopped paying attention.
