4 Ch. Amp Suggestion

[Rajeev]

Hello,

I have a PPI PCX 4125 (4x125W) that was powering my front & rears that is now malfunctioning. So I am looking for a replacement. PPI won't repair it and it is for my Camry.

I have installed:

Front: Infinity Kappa Perfect Component 6 1/2" - 4ohm

Rear: Kappa 693i (6x9") - 4 ohm

3 Kappa Perfect 12"

I'm looking for something of similar power, and quality as the PPI with perhaps less sibilant sound, unless that is because of the speakers. I listen to everything rock, instrumental, rap, soundtrack, etc. Preferably around $800 or less.

Thanks for any suggestions!

Thanks for the suggestions. I'm going to skip the 1st one b/c of the looks.

The others appear to be Class D amps. Are they now equal in SQ to Class A/B amps now these days?

Edit: Ok, I see the other thread now

Equal in sound, always have been

Better in size per watt and efficency.

Right thread?

He's going to try to feed you some BS. Just look at what class of amps are winning in the highest formats of sound quality. It's not the expensive A/B amps. Even though the marketing keeps saying they sound better

Amp medics will fix it for a fair price and do great work.

He said he doesn't support PPI PCX amps.
