are you definitely buying new? Directed/Orion/Viper have some really nice, affordable 2 ch refurbs.

None of those are really that good. Plus ikesound has been known to have a few issues lately. Search the classifield first. Some good stuff to be found there.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/yumyum.gif.0556df42231b304b9c995aefd13928a8.gif

Profile makes pretty solid entry-level amps. They're tough to beat for the money. If you decide that Profile is the way to go, why not buy directly from them?

Have a look here and scroll down to the CA600. 150w X 2 for $65, factory-direct. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Okay now i think im going to go with the PG 4.0:2. Looks like solid amp and i've heard some good things about it. What is your take on this amp? I dont want to buy refurbs b/c i've already had 2 bad experiences with refurbs so thats a no go. Im really thinkin about this amp though....

Taken directly from that eBay listing:

The Phoenix Gold R4.0:2 400 watt 2 Channel Car Amplifier, is the newest addition to the Octane series of 2004 amps. This amp puts out more power than you would think. The reason for this is that Phoenix Gold rates there amps very strictly, so each watt is more efficient. This amp is a 1 channel mono amplifier, which is made specifically to power your subs with deep, floor-shattering bass.

Yeah, I think they have that a little backwards.

LeX on here has a 500/2 from Directed FS, I think it's a refurb though, get him to test it and if it's fine it'd be a great deal for you.

Yeah i got that. Also sounddomain.com is doing 50% off orion amps you can get their 50x2 i think it's the 2002 model orion amp for $99
