A high current amp is not a class of amp, but an indicator of build quality. Lower ohm loads on an amplifier will cause the amp to respond with a higher amperage to voltage ratio. Amperage = current. So the amp provides a high current when loaded with a low ohm load. Generally these amps are sought for subwoofers when you want to run them at a 1ohm load. High current wouldn't apply to the front soundstage, where you would want to run the speakers at the normal 4 ohm (sometimes higher) load.

Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.

hey, the amps are

For a customer vehicle that we are still working on, Haven't decided what amps and speakers to use. The size of the speakers that will fit in the stock barring is 6 1/2. So far with some help from a member here we will be using the

ts-w2000spl premiers'. And as for tweeters for the highs, not sure. Some suggestions, or any suggestions will help us. Thanks
