Is this amp good/worth the $$$ ?

Im able to get a brand new Legacy Series II LA220 300 Watt 2 Channel Bridgeable Car Amplifier under $100 (CND). Does anybody have this or heard good/bad things about them??

I might use it to power 8" cerwin vega g3's or Rockford Fosgate P110S4 Punch 10"'s.

yeah... dont get it legacy amps are comparable to Jensen and Rampage products... lowest of the low bro. I say any amp that you can get for $40, unless its from your grandpa, is a crappy product.

I can list a list of everything wal mart sells and say it sucks but the truth is you get what you pay for. If you don't mind a dirty signal, legacy's are a great power for the $...

I have !!.. Friend has a L7 10" in a maxima w/ a "800" watt Red series. Pushes it, but isn't loud by any means. Bought it for $75.00.

well im seriously thinking of a the Sony 1200watt amp. I kinda like it and i know someone who has it in their car and it pushes hard (sony xplods). But I was thinking of using that to push some Punch P1's.....P2's if I wait longer to get it.

Is that a good setup??

2 10" Punch p1's

also ..wiring.... do I really have to spend about $100 for a stinger kit?? Are the wires really important, from what i've heard and read, it is. But just to make sure...
