[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8417284, member: 614752"] The problem with buying cheap amps is that you'll get poor performance, dubious reliability and little to no resale value if you ever want to upgrade or just get out of it down the road. Kicker, Alpine, Rockford, and JBL are all mainstream brands that offer reliable small amps. Poke around their offerings, That Boss amp won't make more than 300W if it were hit by lightning so don't be discouraged if you can't get "1000W" for 40$ elsewhere. Reliable brands should have you into 300W legit for 100$ or so. I'd trust Kicker over Pioneer for prefab subwoofer. Kicker's stuff is usually decent, Pioneer IMO is a great head unit and that's about it. [/QUOTE]
