MA component amp

[jdeaton]

How are MA amps for powering component speakers? How do you think either of these amps would sound for a 6.5" RSD components?

Any idea why the 2nd one costs so much more? Do you think it would be worth the extra money to buy a pdx-2.150? Ive gotta have a small amp to fit under the seat....

The second one might cost more because it's twice the size of the first. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

I don't know how you feel ablout reburbished stuff but, thedeepdiscount.com sells that HK398 R/B for $60.

Personally, I'm a little afraid of R/B head units and sub amps, but for pushing comps I might gamble a little.

any opinions on these amps?

I had a 498i pushing my four 6*9's... Thought it did just fine with them. One thing I had enough power to spare.
