Now that the DSC-4125 is $180 what's the deal to get

[wet_rat 10+ year member]

I have purchased a set of CADENCE CWM6-KIT for the front and Phoenix Gold RSd6 for the rear of my 08

Hummer H3 but am looking for suggestions to drive them. I like the DSC-4125 but at $180 there are others that I would consider over it. What amp is comparible to the DSC that is in the $150 or lower range. Thanks in advance

It's getting really bad, how spoiled everyone has become since the release of the Discus series; now everyone on this site expects amps that produce loads of good, clean power for less than $100. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

That's only a $30 difference. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

For some people who are on a serious budget, like myself, that $30 can make all the difference. But you drive an '08 H3, and I drive a '98 Dakota and am a college student making minimum wage, so...maybe you should consider a new hobby if that $30 is too much for you.

$171 shipped via VM with coupon save5now or $170 off ebay with 8% bing. FWIW

I would have still bought mine even if it was ~$200 cause the rep is so good on here //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

sorry if i am an ******* but you have a nack for buying junk?

i know the DCS isn't total just but by god its no where near quality nor are those speakers..

its sad there is a market for that cheap stuff..

honestly i think you might want to look into the cadence ZRS lines.. there decent amps for next to nothing..

hmmmmm--from what I've read, this forum doesn't agree, but I would love for you to justify your opinion

It's not that $30 is too much but as I read through the forums and see that there are amps out there that are good quality for $15o or less then why spend the extra $, that's all. I have spent alot more for alot less, but if the eneral opinion is that it is still worth the $180, I'll jump on it

umm again cheap amps use cheap parts.. sure its a good design but if you knew what they cost to make you would know what i mean..

its the lowend maxsonics stuff i wouldn't consider them midgrade...

this SS low line amp is a step up..

RUB4.600 - Soundstream 4 Ch. 600 Watt RMS Rubicon Series A/B Class Amplifier

they can charge 200 for such an amp but i've yet to be impressed with the maxxsonics products..

I'm not afraid to spend $ here. Share some more ideas. I don't want my H3 full of junk and apparently I was mislead with speaker selection

They are capable budget speakers. Listen to them and decide for yourself. Only way to tell. I'm guessing you'll enjoy them //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

As far as amps are concerned, the DSC is definitely a forum boner. Many people like them, use them. But if you want a good deal on a good product (and if no warranty is ok) check the classifieds for something.
