5 channel amp

[acold7dusta 10+ year member]

hi guys, ive been through a few different setups so far, and am upgrading again. i really would like simplifying everything and buying one fairly decent 5 channel amp (for ~400). I really like how the memphis amps sound, and would grab the Baby Belle real quick if another one popped up available. I dont really care about my sub bass that much, but still would like some. Im definately a SQL guy, and want want all the speakers to really shine. One question though. What are some of my other options in regards to 5 channel amps with ~50x4 + ~400x1? I heard some good things about Soundstream also, and am considering one of there 5s, but there just as rare as the baby belle. I would be buying new, but offers are always welcome.

thanks,

kev

There is a belle on the fs forum, but its the 1300. Try looking at ebay for the right one. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

for the price id stick with the memphis personally....i agree with what you said, they sound great

fo rthe extra money you cant g owrong wiht an older USamp or Arc liek they recommended...i woudlnt go with a PPI unles sit was really oldskool, like art series old....... but thats my opinion

The Eclipse XA5000 has proven to be one mean amp. Full range class D ICEpower amp, rated 50w rms x 4 and 450w rms x 1. We have done about 6 of these amps in the last month alone. Consider this amp as well.

hmm more choices than i thought..even found a crossfire 5 channel on ebay, and that could be a possible candidate as well @ $340. Id probably end up with the memphis, since I know the quality, reliablity and the sound they produce first hand

which brings to a next, noobish question: whats a good D2 10" sub that'll run good off of 400 RMS @ 1 ohm. I was considering the 10" D2 Diamond D3 sub, but then started questioning the SQ, since its one of the bottom line subs. Any input?
