[QUOTE="Prowler573, post: 2994822, member: 561023"] A 1 to 1.5kW substage (knowing the penchant of Power-series amps for considerably exceeding given ratings) with OEM Delco components - one side blown. [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif[/IMG] Errmm...I don't know if that quite the direction I'd have taken with that one but okay. As far as more economy-oriented replacements what kind of power are we actually talking about here? Is it the OEM headunit as well - so maybe 10w a channel or so? Or are we talking an aftermarket HU with a whopping 18w or so usable per channel? *sigh* Blaupunkt's Velocity-series gear seems to be for the budget-minded as well as getting decent reviews. $130/shipped for authorized retail on the 6.5" set so I'd imagine they're much cheaper like on eBay or the like. Don't know how well they like only HU power, though... Rev-series Pioneer coaxs really might be your best bet as far as bang for the buck. Components really might be best saved for when you can adequately power them. Sure they'll technically [I]work[/I] off of the HU alone but they'll be starving. [/QUOTE]
