[QUOTE="Imshirazy, post: 2815772, member: 574016"] Sure and to answer your Q about the 55 rms vs 70 rms, it won't harm the speakers, adding a few extra watts never hurt anybody, just as long as you dont go into 80 - 90 - 100 and higher put it this way, you got the absolute top amount of power your speaker can take, then take half of that and it's rms. rms is usually used to let buyers know what watts they can run the speaker at for a very long amount of time without it heating up/getting damaged more or less. there's a bit more to it than that but that's really all you gotta know and if you want, just turn the gain down a bit to lower how much power is being sent through [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif[/IMG] [URL="http://cgi.ebay.com/AUTOTEK-SS75-4-SUPER-SPORT-CLASS-A-B-4-CHANNEL-AMP-NEW_W0QQitemZ150107703907QQihZ005QQcategoryZ4950QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"]http://cgi.ebay.com/AUTOTEK-SS75-4-SUPER-SPORT-CLASS-A-B-4-CHANNEL-AMP-NEW_W0QQitemZ150107703907QQihZ005QQcategoryZ4950QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem[/URL] this autotek puts out 75 watts by 4 channels, I don't like the look of the newer SS models though...super sport is the lowest line of the autotek line, but they're still nonetheless amazing [URL="http://cgi.ebay.com/Autotek-7100-BTS-Zapco-Amplifier-not-RF-Lanzar-Punch_W0QQitemZ320100348880QQihZ011QQcategoryZ18796QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"]http://cgi.ebay.com/Autotek-7100-BTS-Zapco-Amplifier-not-RF-Lanzar-Punch_W0QQitemZ320100348880QQihZ011QQcategoryZ18796QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem[/URL] the older autotek amps are incredibly small but very underrated. If you end up learning a good enough about these, go for them, but as of now if you're not sure of anything about them, don't touch them [URL="http://cgi.ebay.com/Autotek-Amplifier-MX250_W0QQitemZ300097741762QQihZ020QQcategoryZ18796QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"]http://cgi.ebay.com/Autotek-Amplifier-MX250_W0QQitemZ300097741762QQihZ020QQcategoryZ18796QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem[/URL] the mx and sx line are the next highest up after super sport, unfortunately I could only find a used one :/ Then if you go into the mm line (mean machine) you're asking for a lot, those amps are incredibly powerful and destructive, meant for subs unless you look at older models. For your sake though I'd recommend the SS. the one i linked you actually retails for near 400 dollars, but since not many people know of autotek the prices you can get for them on ebay are very low but of course i've noticed that the more I tell people about autotek the higher the prices seem to go and the more bids o.0 maybe just high coincidence correction: mean machine does have amps for speakers too [/QUOTE]
