Amplifier for CDT components

[Unreal 10+ year member]

Just got a set of CDT CFs 6.5" components from thezeb.com. This is my first set of components, and I need an amp for them.

I want something thats going to sound good, but I'm on a limited budget. I would like to spend $200 or less, but can spend more if it will really get me much better sound.

I work at bestbuy, and can get amps there for a good price. Was looking at a rockford 401s for $112. Its 100x2 at 4 ohms. I can also get kenwood, pioneer, and whatever else Bestbuy sells. Should I just get an amp from work, or should I look online and get something nicer? Will I be disappointed in the rockford running the CDTs?

Look at sounddomain.com...

they have some high-end xtant amps at a good price.... I belive they have a nice two channel 100x2 for around 130 bucks..

I would not recommend RF even if you get a good deal. If you want a good amp for cheap look at US Acoustics. http://www.crutchfield.com Also Soundstream is a good bargain http://www.millionbuy.com
