Default Re: Help picking amp [not vague]

Also, can anyone tell me if the following are decent amp brands:
- Power Acoustik - crap

- Eclipse - ehhh
- Memphis - ehhh
- Mmats - ehhh - made great high power amps a while back
- Kove - not familiar with their lineup
- Alpine - decent
- Kenwood - decent
- Rockford - depends on lineup selected - new stuff is just so/so
- Viper - unsure of linup

While I'm at it, I have some imaging questions. In the car I plan to get [240sx] the Midranges won't be right behind me as they are in the Del Sol.


You don't want midranges behind you...probably the last place thta you want them actually. There are only a select few cars that have imaged well with midranges in the rear.

If you really want a car that images, focusing on where to put the midranges is your number one priority.

Focals put out bright highs, but with subs all the bass will be coming from the back.
If your install is done properly, the bass won't sound as if it's coming from the rear.

Should I add tweeters back there? I plan on removing the back seats also.
I absolutely wouldn't add tweeters in the rear.
