[QUOTE="SteelWheel, post: 981314, member: 561533"] What companies are known for producing the more efficient amps? And going the other way, what companies produce the more inefficient amps? Is there any place on the internet where I can find the efficiency ratings for amps? BTW, I am looking at 4 channel amps producing a total of 450 - 600 RMS. I am going to be driving about 125 RMS each to the front two speakers and 200 - 300 to the rear. BTW, I know that class D amps are more efficient, but it seems to me that there may be some inherent power expense in running seperate amps so that you need to be running higher wattage than I am talking about before you start realizing the benefits of the class D. One Amp that fits my needs for wattage ois the Kicker 650.4, any thoughts on this amp efficiency or otherwise? [/QUOTE]
