why not the kenwood? I heard good stuff about that one.. Just wondering..

Also i can't find any specs on the DEI 200. Do you have the specs?

unless its kenwood excelon, i would stay away from them

alphasonik amps arent bad though, power akoustic is no good.

The 70x4 on that kenwood is at 20-20kHz, .05%THD so that looks like a pretty decent amp for the money. Cept it is at 14.4v.... god i hate cea ratings, why would they allow 14.4 jesus.

because that's what most cars use while running?

13.8 is what most cars use while running fyi

edit:

and that pq20 is a baddass rated at 80x4 but capable of a lot more. It doesn't have crossovers if i recall but if you headunit has them then i would go for it. Nothing "cleaner" than that imo.

just because it does full range at .05% THD (at 4 ohm stereo, it will be higher 2 ohm or bridged) doesnt mean its a good amp.

but do as you wish. im a sucker for old school goodness

oh didnt see it was excelon. well, up to you man. look up some reviews for urself, do your own research. other peoples experiences will not necessarily apply to yours - alot depends on install

 

[its_bacon12 10+ year member]

plus anything under 1% THD is undetectable by the human ear for full range (iirc)

turn off your AC/Heat, stereo, and any other device that you can and watch the voltage go up. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Not true. Many cars are regulated at under 14.4

Mine personally is at 13.8/13.9 when NOTHING is running but the motor.
