Which Multi-Channel Amp?

[Croat23 10+ year member]

Hey guys,

I'm about to upgrade my Bose sound system in my Mazda 6 and I'm looking for some input regarding an amp. I'm fairly new to this, so any input/advice would be appreciated. I plan on putting components (leaning towards CDT) in the front and some 6.5" fillers in the back and I need a 4 channel amp to run everything. The stock system has a self powered sub, so I was hoping to some how continue to use this, but no big loss if I can't. Anyway, of the amps listed below, which one would you recommend and why?

Hifonics

Profile

Phoenix Gold

Infinity

Soundstream

Any other Suggestions? Thoughts? Thanks!!

My list --

Infinity - Just a quality amp. Accurately rated. Shares boards with the big 4 ch JBL GTO amp.

PG - based on past reputation - not sure about their new stuff though - their lower priced products seem to be falling back to the pack.

HF

Profile & Lanzar would be pretty similar performance-wise IMO, but I think you get more for the money with Profile.

Added one more Amp to the mix....Soundstream. Anyone else have an opinion on this?

out of those i choose infinity. None of them are really spectacular in my opinion, however, the infinity to me seems to be the best choice.

I'll vouch for the Infinity 7541a. Rock solid and has been treating me and my SPX-177R's very well.
