[QUOTE="kero48, post: 8347835, member: 664415"] Thinking about it further for some reason I am worried about my cars alternator and ability to do it's job with a SA10 at 750rms or even higher. My car is 15 years old and the alternator I think is rated near 70 to 75amps give or take. The later subarus have higher amp alternators. I think an SA10 might be out of range for me as to get an amp to drive it in spring might cost to much. I'm not even sure yet what amp I would get i spring/summer to run a sa8 or e10. I need a cost effective model suggestion. Not in the cards anytime soon with regards to upgrading eletrical lol. Can I assume that if I stick with a SA8 (500rms) or an E10 (500rms) I should not run into any electrical issues with the spring amp purchase. It's my daily so I don't want to mess around to much. Will post up existing amp tomorrow to get some feedback. I assume that the gain will have to be kept low (at half?) until a replacement amp is purchased. No big deal really.
