[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8399743, member: 614752"] Because a "20000W" amp that costs 100$ will only give you 500W... it will perform poorly and probably fail prematurely. 500W is fine and most of the mainstream brands make some solid and reliable gear in that range. In 500w range I'd personally be shopping around for a used JL 500/1 which can be had on eBay or forums for 130$ ish. They're really nice for 500W Otherwise Kicker, Rockford, JBL/Infinity, Alpine all make some good stuff in that power tier. IMO You'd do well enough getting some coaxials in any of those brands either. Their 100$ ish a set lineup should be good value for the money. Do yourself a favor and don't buy junk. If money is as tight as you say, you might as well spend it on something that'll perform well and last a good while for you. [/QUOTE]
