New amp replacement Mazda Miata

[Jciturr]

Hi, my current setup is pretty simple. I have two Power Acoustics mid-65 speakers rated at 150 rms with tweeters (forgot the brand) 150 rms and a 10 inch rockford fosgate sub rated at 150 rms (which I may change in the future for something more powerfull) this was powered by a Crunch GTR1000.4 that burned and I need to replace. This setup was done by my local flea market.

I been looking around for something not too expensive and this is what I come up with (Im open to suggestions as well) Kenwood KAC-8406 70.4, MTX Thunder 75.4 400w rms,Powerbass XL-4160M. I also was looking at this pioneerPioneer GM-A5602 and buy two, its pretty cheap for the wattage. What would you recommend?

SKAR Audio SK-85.4AB SK Series 500W 4-Channel Car Amplifier

Precision Power PPI P900.5 Phantom 900W 5-Channel Amplifier

these are both steal but i would def prob get the 5 channel ppi and be safe for a while and future upgrades

Check out the Ample Audio 5-channel I have for sale on here.

It fits the bill.

Thanks for the responses, I probably want to go with a new amp and for this car a 4 channel is the most I can go without doing some serious mods to it like cutting sheet metal. There are so many brands that I never heard before. What do you guys think about the Hifonics Zeus zrx2000.4 or Hifonics Brutus brx1200.4 any of this amps should drive my speakers to the max with no issues, but are they good? Better than the name brands?

That Skar. Your speakers are very overrated.

Yeah this were cheap I'm sure I have to upgrade them down the road. I just want to get a good amp so I can use my system again. What do you recommend a class ab or class d. Any brands models? What do you think about Hifonics, powerbass or should I stick with name brands or is it overrated?

Thanks noload4u, anyone else have any inputs on Hifonics BRX 1200.4? They seem like a good company and the Brutus model being popular
