[QUOTE="Tempe, post: 1306908, member: 555610"] 1. I never get that. Why do people think that their head units put out so much power? Look at a 50 x 4 amp. Look how freakin big it is compared to your head unit. Speaking of size of head unit does the amplifier take up most of the room inside? Actually it uses a little chip. Yes, a chip. I remember when Pioneer came out with the Mosfet 45 chip and making a huge deal about how much bigger it was compared to a conventional chip. There is no way in hell that you are going to get 50x4 clean watts out of any head unit. I would go for a component amplifier on my fronts in every install I do. 2. Anyways is not a word [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif[/IMG] I am running about 50x2 on my RE comp set. I cannot see using more power. The amp is a 4 channel amp, I bridged it to 2 channels, and it just was a waste of extra power; it had to be turned down anyway. 50 watts per side is plenty for your your conventional 2-way component set.
