Ok I had a system in my car untill i was robbed. Now i have to start from the ground up. This is what i have so far, Kennwood excelon KDC - X959 for a HU. Now i am looking at some rockfords for subs pref 12's i guess. Now for amps I want to run a 2 channel amp for my subs alone and a 4 channel amp for my speakers. I have been looking at Profile's series of amps can some of you guys give me some thoughts on how there amps are or what are some good amps that put or 150 to 200W x2 at 4ohms. Also what is are some good 4 channel amps that i can use to run my speakers too. The setup I had before was an older model of excelon series HU w/ kennwood Digital EQ, two sony amps one 4 channel and one 2 channel with a bandbass box with two rockford 10's. Thoughts and some opioins would be greatly appreciated thanks

 

Profile makes a bunch of amps that you could use in the setup you're putting together. I personally would recommend the Clarius series amps. They look decent, sound decent and won't cost you an arm and a leg. Instead of a two channel amp for your subs, have you ever considered a mono amp instead? Just a suggestion.

 

what would a mono amp do for me that a 2 channel amp wont. can u explain

 

Usually with a mono amp you gain the flexibility of being able to drive lower impedances that way if you ever decide to expand on your system you can do so flawlessly without having to switch out any components. Just my opinion of course.

 

Have you actually bought the subs yet???

A mono amp give you the dollars/watt ratio as these amps are designed to power subs only. I'd look into a class d amp. If budget is a concern, then JBL has a couple different mono amps in the $275 and under price range.

 

I too have heard of people using JBL amps for subs and have never heard any negative feedback.

 

the powervalve amps from JBL are SOLID! its cheap and pounds. its my vote for a budget sub amp.
