I am going to be buying a new car audio system in the future consisting of a active three way setup with a sub also (4-way) using an audio control crossover. I am considering getting either polk momo,eclipse (either series), or kicker (prob the kx but maybe the sx's) amp because I can get an accomodation on them. I have only heard the kickers and one eclipse but never any polks. I was looking for some insight on any of these amps. I will be bi-amping a component set with 75-90 watts rms on each driver then 100-125w rms on each mid-bass, then I am still debating on the type of subwoofer I will be using but will use the same brand of amps for everything just for looks

Being a fan of Eclipse, I woul'd recommend nothing else. The XA stuff is fantastic sounding gear. Efficient, too...

A little more power than you are actually specifying, but that never hurts, as long as you properly adjust all of your gains.

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

Has anyone had any experience with the polk momo carbon series amps. They look like they are some nice amps on paper.
