Default Suggestions for 4 channel amp?

The JL 300/4 looks really good from where I'm sitting, I'm just wondering if anyone has any other suggestions I should look at?
thanks

yeah im considering one too. You can also find the phoenix gold tantrum 600.4. Itll do 300 watts by 2 bridged. Very tempting but i like the jl a bit more. I also want to try a different brand.

Rember to make sure that the amp will physically fit where you are going to put it. I ruled out the ppi cause it is jsut too damn long. If it fits where you want it to though then no problems.

Phoenix Gold is just releasing their Octane R series amplifiers. Might be worth taking a peek at before you make your final decision.

My brother has a JL 300/4 and Focal 165K's, but we're still waiting for his dash kit before I install it in his 03 IS300. I think it will kick arse!!!:naughty:
