[QUOTE="HardofWhoring, post: 8841376, member: 674149"] Honestly, I have to say Kudos man. Most people who post in here don't put in the effort to actually figure out what they want and try to solve their own problems before posting. They post the most basic questions, they could clearly answer with a few minutes of searching, and want to be told what to do as if everyone is going to give them the same perfect answer that somehow applies to everyone. I took a quick look around crutchfield, and it looks like there is a big price bump in upping that wattage if going with a 5ch. You picked one thats 75w x 4, and you could go anywhere from 90-110 no problem. It's your call, but I think I would go with two separate amps. You could easily go with a 4ch amp that is closer to 100w x 4, and then a 1ch 500w sub amp. Both of those sizes are pretty common, and can be found pretty cheap. Just a little more wiring and distribution blocks. Might make a decibel or two difference to go from 75 to 100w. The price could be about the same, and leaves you a little more room for down the road (if that matters). 100x4 + a 500w sub amp should still work with that alternator you have now too, (900w is about 55 amps). 100 more watts is only about another 6 amps. Not sure if you have figured out where it mounts, but two little amps might fit better. [/QUOTE]
