Size does matter depending on the overall current draw of the amp being used, but, in your case you should be just fine. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

i don't think too big is a problem, but too small can be bad. that sounds like it should be all right.

according to my girlfriend, yes, size does matter. as far as amps go, look into the future a bit and think about upgrading down the road. if no upgrades will be taking place, then dont go overboard with something that is not essential to your system.
