I need a 4 channel amp that will power the comps and sub and i'm looking to spend around $100 maybe $150.

Any suggestions or other ways i should go about powering this setup?

If you haven't touched the box then it should be still wired series fora 4 ohm mono load. what I would do for now is get a amp just for the sub and run comps off deck. They might not be loud, crisp and clear, but it will do. Then in the future get a small amp for the comps. a good amp that will go a little of the way over 150 would be the kicker

I say its a good way to go. I don't think ur gonna find much for 150 range that will give you power for your whole set up.

this amp will power that kicker box with power to spare.. i would agree that running the comps off deck power for now woud be the better idea.. later pick up a small 2 channel for the the comps.. a alpine mrp-t220 would work nice for the comps, and even with both amps running, 8 guage will power them, but 4 guage might be recommendable..

Yeah, i guess it would be best to get 2 separate amps.

So, is there anything for around $100-150 that will just power the sub or am i still looking at $150+ for (300 watts RMS)?

Do Profile amps really ****? Some people have said to avoid them but they would be perfect for me (unless they are junk).

The only thing i can really find besides the PG ebay amp in the post above mine is this Pioneer
