Need Amp Ideas...

[celinaman060]

I'm looking to put an ALPINE SPR-17S 6.5" TYPE R 300 WATT COMPONENT SPEAKERS SYSTEM in my 95 Silverado. What I'm looking for is different amp ideas to power them.

Speaker SPecs:

2-110 watts RMS

330 watts peak power

External crossovers 12dB high pass and 6 dB low pass

87 dB sensitivity

Frequency response: 65 Hz - 27 kHz

Any help would be greatly appreciated. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

why dont you use an alpine amp? Keep the brands the same?

Im OK with using an Alipne amp. I dont know what kind of specs to look for in an amp to match this speaker setup.

I would look for a 4 channel to bridge for those speakers. As lnog as you can get at least 110x2@4 ohm your good... its always nice to have headroom thogh.

jesus you can do that w a 2 channel......why buy a 4 channel for that

I agree no reason to run a 4-channel unless you plan or needing the flexibility later on.

What is your budget?

Get a good 2 channel. Get one rated at like 125w or close to that and you'll be good. You know, just make sure it has hp crossovers and all the usual stuff.

The truck has 2 6" in the door and a spot for the tweeters in the door as well. The factory doesn't install the tweeters unless you opt for the sound upgrade. There is also a speaker in the pillar behind the seat. So I might upgrade later. I'm not trying to spend more than $150 on the amp. I'm told that that is not a lot for an amp but its what is feasible right now

Can I run the stock speakers with the new setup?

Do the tweeters have the same RMS rating as the woofers?

Can a tweeter and a woofer run off the same channel on the amp?

If so, do I need an amp with more than the rated 110 RMS/channel value?
