please recommend an amp

[ymee 10+ year member]

I need a 4 channel amp to drive at least 75W RMS to each channel. Was looking at the Kenwood 8404 to drive the Focal 165V's (thinking about getting these) at 4ohm impedance.

is there a better amp in the

Thanks

While I'm generally a Kenwood fanboi I have to answer that question decidedly in the affirmative.

Yup.

Op, are you at all opposed to buying used? Because if not a budget of up to $300 for a 4-ch of that wattage level including used units is a wide-open category. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/thumbsup.gif.3287b36ca96645a13a43aff531f37f02.gif

That's definitely a good recommendation.

Phoenix Gold Xenon 100.4 can easily be had at that $$$ level used.

Man, just have a look around. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

No selling in the general forums, d00d.

And that Eagle won't give him the wattage he's looking for anyway - even after factoring in the average under-rating on those old Zed amps...

Cheers to the PG Xenon. I've never heard anyone talk about them here before, but I love mine. I don't have much to compare it to, but it is definately a good clean sound. It wasn't cheap when I bought mine, but you can sure get them cheap now.
