the audisons are great but i think that 5 channel is like 50 watts , make sure youre speakers are gona be loud enought at 50 watts, my rear speakers were loud as hell with 55 watts and my fronts ones were very quiet to watch out,the alpine is good but too expensive for what it is.

Boston amps are good...I've heard their demo Audi TT before, and I was very impressed with it. Are those amps worth the price they charge? Not a chance...//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Alpine makes a quality product...but again, I think they're a little overpriced for what they are...
