Hey guys, been looking around quite a bit for an amp. I have a few in mind but before I make a purchase I wanna see what ya'll think I should take a look at. Ok heres the specs. Wanna get a amp which will put out at least 125 x 2 @ 4 ohms. Bridging the two 8 ohm svc subs would be best. Anyway I dont want to spend mroe than $150.00. Whats on your mind?

This Kenwood seems to be a pretty good deal. It comes with a bass remote and a free 4 gauge installation kit.

The Blaupunkt amp would be a good choice. [url=http://www.sounddomain.com/sku/USAUSX2100]This[/url] US acoustics amp would be a good choice also.

No no no and no. Stay away from all of those cheap knock off brands. Take a look at Power Acoustik's website and you will find that almost all of their products look the same (and are) as other low end brands (such as sony and kenwood). Im almost 100% sure that all of those amp's internal parts are the same or similar also. They will deliver half of less of the power they claim also. Stick with US Acoustics or Blaupunkt for a cheap but good amp.

Jensen equipment = good for use as a doorstop, or maybe a paperweight. Customsuburb gave you the best answer to your questions.
