i remember the boss amp i have 5 years or so ago always got hot as hell. But at the same time not knowing as much then as i do now, i might have had it hooked up wrong lol. But it seriously got so hot i couldnt touch it

I'll second the Profile recommendation. Using 2 of them to power some comps and coax's and very happy with the price/performance of them.

i have two profile 600msx 's very good amps for the money.

410 x 1 @ 2 ohm

210? x 1 @ 4 ohm.

i had a thread in the classifieds but no one seemed interested to its lost. a search will find it though.

Don't say something sucks because it accomplishes the goals its designers set for it (low cost, reliable, heavy). Nobody says McDonalds sucks because it isn't Ruth's Chris, just different objectives.

Stuff has surprisingly good reliability and a 5 year warranty.

Much better choices are suggested (I would suggest Crunch), but Boss is better than some of its competitors at that end of the market.

Look into Profile, Hifonics, Crunch, Planet Audio, Kenwood, Power Acoustik, and Pioneer for some decent, yet inexpensive amplifiers.

Stay away from Pyle, Legacy, Pyramid, Boss, Kole, Roadmaster, etc...
