Amp selection question

[jeffburgess10]

Hey everyone..

I recently bought Infinity Kappa 50.9cs at 85 watts rms and I plan on buying Infinity Kappa 52.9i at 75rms. Anyway.. I want to know what would be the best 4 channel amp- bang for the buck.. I was looking at the infinity reference amps but I want other people opinions. I want to get the most performance out of these.

or can i get a basic idea of how many watts i really need?.. I was looking at amps that have 75watts x 4 at 4ohms for good prices.. and then i was looking at amps that have 100watts x 4 at 4 ohms.. There wasnt really anything in between. I'm new to this so I'm not really sure.. I heard more power is never a bad thing. Since my kappa component speakers were 85 watts should i get the 100watts x 4?

Thanks

As long as you set your gains with a dmm an make sure you are not overpowering your speakers then you should be fine with any good 100x4 amp
