I need a more powerful / cleaner 4ch amp to drive the 2-way (tweeter + 8" driver) in the front of my car. Now I have this amp:
JL Audio XD400/4 Class D 4-channel amplifier is rated at 75 Watts RMS x 4-channels in 4-ohm at 20 to 20,000Hz with a signal-to-noise-ratio of 104 dB and a total harmonic distortion of 1% while receiving 14.4 Volts.
Width 8.5 in
Depth 7.1 in
Height 2 in
My budget is $1000 and I need an amp that isn't much larger than the JL. Max dimensions would be:
Width 9 in
Depth 10 in
Height 3 in
I have searched the normal candidates (JL (HD600/4 is probably too big), Alpine, Focal, etc) but everything is either small and cheaper (not real, old-school BIG Watts) or physically huge. Can anyone recommend a few brands or models to consider?
Driver specs:
Woofer
Size - 200 mm (8")
Power Handling 100 W Continuous Power / 300 W Peak Power
Impedance 4 Ω
Frequency Response 35 ÷ 3k Hz
Sensitivity 93,5 dB/Spl
Magnet - High density flux ferrite
Thanks
