anything kw as far as amps is garbage trust me i unfortunately sell them lolz and very few at that.

Thanks for the honesty haha. What do 4 channel amps do you suggest? Whether you sell them or not

If you find a d2 sub I have an old PPI A600.2 that will rock your socks. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/thumbsupwink.gif.129404938effda6ad9cca39e7f4b58a3.gif

the THD on that kenwood 4 chan is atrocious. you will defiantly hear distortion at high volumes. and those are pretty good comps so you shouldn't hurt them with a crappy amp. you should get a better 4 chan and a better sub amp.

Good to know. What amps do you suggest?

i only threw the sundown in so i wouldnt get flamed

personally i dont like their mid amps and apparently from everything i read sq judges dont either lolz but they make good amounts of power

never tried one personaaly ,but i dont see anyone using the 4 channels out here either,i like my efx made by scosche rated at 300 watts rms at 4 ohms [underated] but actually puts out over 400 watts rms at 4 ohms .sounds great

Ive not too familiar with any of the components you listed for that set-up. I will research them a little bit and let you know whether im interested.

Is the JBL Gti a good enough sub? Ive heard good things about it so thats why I listed it.

the dd 2515 is way better can hold up 1500 watt rms.powerbass 2xl comps are 180 watts max 90 watts rms [3 ohm comps],massive 400.4 is 400 watts rms at 2 ohm the kicker zx1000 is 1000 watts rms [my team did a 141 db on the dash with this set up at 41 hertz]clamped at over 1400 watts rms,scosche wires are one of the best and most stranded wires on the market,the alpine deck is an older deck about 3 years ,but has never been installed in brand new condition,sliding face,with ipod cord and remote
