[QUOTE="bikejunkie223, post: 1210545, member: 563147"] I think, if you like it you should run it. You could get a different amp, but supply and demand pretty much dictate at a specific price point, just about all of a type of product will be equal. Virtually any $225 4-channel will sound and perform the same. Use that amp for your comps, or use it for your subs- either way it's fine. Reviews on websites, and forums for that matter need to be taken with a handful of salt. You seem to get a 80% numbnuts to 20% knowledgable ratio. Is your amp overrated for wattage? Probably. My question is, if you like it, and it runs your speakers as loud and clean as you want, does it matter what people think? My amp is rated the other way. Xtant says my 403a does 50w x2 into 4ohms, and 100w x1 into 4ohms, or 200wx1 into 2ohms for a sub channel. I am running Dls UP-6 components, and 2 Kicker Solo's, and If this is what 300watts sounds like, then I have never owned an amp prior to this one that made remotely what it was rated at. If you had $400 to spend on a 4-channel, you could get a much nicer amp, but for your budget, use what you have if you like it.
