Anyone use this amp?

I'm looking to power 2 polk ex-10's (150 wrms each). A friend recommended this amp to me and I just wanted to get a second opinions.

btw, I'm a total beginner, and i'm looking to put a budget/beginner system together. nothing expensive or extravagant.

I'd like to spend less than $100 on an amp. Any other recommendations? I'm willing to buy used as well.

It's over-rated, it won't give you 150/sub, but there are amps out there that will in about the same price range.

Check out the Profile AP1000M. There's one on ebay that's about to end that you can get for 105 shipped. It will give each sub 200w or so.

There are several good options on ebay for around $100.

There's a Cerwin Vega that looks nice, a couple Alpine's, kicker zx300.1's, you might even catch a 400.1 around $100, infinity...

Just look for mono's that do 300+ at 2 ohms.
