[QUOTE="Silverbullet555, post: 6826049, member: 622302"] I've been doing a lot of reading and it seems that good information is hard to find. Maybe I am looking in the wrong spot. I considered using 3 Eclipse EA4200 amps or an MB Quart Nautic 660 or 2 alpine pdx's or it seems like a million other choices. I think I am narrowed down. Choice 1: I found two Alpine MRP-F550 for $150 each. I would go with both and get a 3rd amp for subs in the future. Cost would be $330. I have the necessary cables already. Pros: Cheaper, Class A/B, more flexible, higher output. Cons: 2 amps, more space, more current draw, more heat. Choice 2: JL XD600/6. Run the tower speakers off of 2 channels at 2 ohms, the main cabin speakers of of 2 channels at 2 ohms and the front 2 speakers of the final 2 channels at 4 ohms. $500 delivered Pros: Size, current draw, heat, simplicity. Cons: Cost, lower output, less flexibility. Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
