Which 4 channel speaker amp for me?

[trackzipp]

Hello, I am looking at purchasing a 4 channel amp around 50x4 rms for my 6.5 and 6x9 pioneer speakers. I do not want to spend more than 100 bucks, and have narrowed my search to these amps, although I am not limited to them.

Jensen Power 760

Boss CX350

Crunch P1 600.4

Kenwood KAC-6404

Those are the ones I am really looking at, and I am wondering which will provide me with the best sound. I know they are cheap, I am not looking for anything expensive, just some more umpff.

Get this(may be found elsewhere for cheaper, I didn't look):

Crunch PZT1400.4 4-Channel Car Amplifier/Amp (PZT-1400.4)

This one would be worth the extra money (same deal, I didn't search for lowest price anywhere):

MB Quart ONX4.60 - 480W RMS ONYX 4-Channel Car Amplifier/Amp

Both of those are better choices that what you're looking at for the price.

So the Crunch PZT1400.4 amp that you linked will sound much better than my suggestions?

No offense, but you should reread his post. Where did he say "sound much better"? They may or may not sound better (have less distortion and/or better SNR), but there are other factors in a good amp... Reliability and ability to put out or exceed the rated power are also important.

I do not need to reread his post. I listed some amps that I was looking at and said that I was open to other suggestions. Since he posted two different amps that were more expensive than what I was looking at, I would assume that they sound better, and are better in general. If it doesn't sound better, why would I buy it, especially for more money.

Look, it's all subjective. You seem to only care about price and you completely discount reliability, so I say just buy one of your cheap options.

more money =/= better sound
