Getting new amps. Question? ID

[Brian_smith06 10+ year member]

Ok, so I have decided that I am going to get rid of my current amp stage and run all new amps. I have decided that I want to run all ID amps

I have a few options but thought I would ask you guys first.

First the speakers I am running

Mids: Image Dynamics XS65

Tweetes: ID Xs28's

Subs: 2 12" Idmax's

and possibly horns in time I went ahead and factored them into some of the options but like I said they are just a possibility

first the ratings of each amp I'm considering

Q700.2 175x2@4 325x2@2 and 650x1 bridged

Q450.4 75x4@4 100x4@2 and 200x2 bridged

Q1200.1 1200x1@1

Id pick what ever option is more economical.

that would be the smart thing but I dont mind spending extra if it'll help

If thats the case then go with the biggest configuration you can. Overhead is a good thing when it comes to SQ.

oh I know. I currently have a dls a4 bridged on my mids so they have 250 watts each on tap and my tweeters are powered by a dls a2 so they have about 100 watts each on tap
