Need suggestions for a good, cheap amp for two Rockford Fosgate r2d4-10's.

That pioneer looks even better. Found it on amazon for 80 buck refurbished. Is it OK to by refurbished amps, or are they usually not to be trusted? New would be 100 bucks is why I ask.

Look at the Kenwood class D amps for the money they aren't bad. you can pick up a 500 watt for like $189

its normally fine if its Pioneer thats the one selling it. Make sure its warranteed by the seller on amazon and you'r golden. http://www.caraudio.com/forums/amplifier-classifieds/601897-ppi-phantom-600-2-a.html this amp would also be a good choice if you dont mind used because it has the most power out of them all. Heck make him an offer for 80 shipped, maybe you'll get it. If your buying used, your protected by paypal so if its dead on arrival or any other major troubles, file a claim and you'll get your money back so dont hesitate to buy used, its a good way to get great quality equipment for lower price. If you on a strict budget, the refurb pioneer amp is fine but make sure its warranteed. The rockford amp mentioned is not a bad choice either.

OK, so I found a complete package that is priced better that what I had found before. It has two kicker 10c104's, a VM audio 1000 watt amp, and a Wiring kit all for 170 bucks. Will the VM audio amp be OK? I know the amp probably won't put put the listed wattage, but that's OK for me because those sub's would probably over power the rest of my system anyways.

So has anyone at least heard of VM audio? Will it at least be reliable? Like I said before, I know it probably won't put out it's rated watts, but as log as it doesn't blow up on me, I'm good.
