Thats one of the better lines they make but that isnt saying much at all...

I haven't heard much about the phantom series. Would it do rated power?

Hahaha I was meaning that even though its one of their better lines it is still bottom of totem pole as far as quality... PPI is nothinbg close to what they used to be...

What would be a good 4 channel then for around $250. I have a pair of dd's and they will do 160w a channel. I looking to add a rear fill in a bit but thats a bit later on

You mean you have DD speakers that are rated for 160 rms?

Hmmmmm so you are going to want a 4 channel huh? I may have a 6 channel youd like but its double your budget...

Well lemme ask you this, time and time again I have heard you will barely hear your rear fill if the front setup is done right. Would I be better off looking for a 2 channel instead? I can hear my rear fill atm but thats because my rears are 6x9's and they put out more bass than mg dd's. If I were to get subs then those 6x9's would become meaningless. So all in all am I better off with a 2 channel and would you either have a 2 channel that could work for me or recommend one for my needs?

Well yes and no... Rear fill can really screw with imaging which is why most poeple dont like them but for a basic daily setup rear fill as nice...

Well it would be without the tweeters. I think thats what messes with the imaging. As far as I know tweeters should be in the front so the imaging is in the front

The rear fill wouldn't have tweeters that is

Use a 2 ch.for the front and use the headunit for the rear fill.
