I’m not into mega power or huge bass; my objective is trying to get the best sound quality.
Tried a Alpine (I think an MRV line, 75w x 4) in 1996 and had 5-1/2 good years of service and good sound quality driving MB Quart components and a 10” JL Sub. Sorry I sold it with the car. All around, a very nice sounding amp.
Two years ago I had 3 Zapco Studio 150’s installed in my wife’s SUV. The SUV came with a factory GPS head unit so it was retained. I couldn’t believe the great SQ even using the factory head unit.
If it works for you, stay with it – Had a new system installed in my car last month. This time a good head unit and used three older model (new condition) Zapco competition 300 series amps. For my taste, these delivered awesome SQ.
