I figured this much. What kinda speakers are you running. I need to know what kinda power you need. Also what kinda car do you drive.

I think I know who you are actually. Anyways, I would look at a rockford 3001 and a rockford 4004 as one compination. You could also look at a mtx 4001 and a rt404 if you wanted to go with a little better set uo than the rockfords. I wouldnt suggest the ultimate, concept, sony, boss, lightning or kenwood amps. Also the PPI and Orion amps are only 90 day warrenties due to KK not being an authorized dealer in Regina, unless of course they decidede to pick them up full time. I really love orion amps but if they arent authorized then they arent worth it. I pesonally despise Alpine heads abd amps but that is stricly personal and you shouldnt base your desision on that since alot of people use them and like them. Same think with JL, not my cup of Tea but some people love em and both brands seem to be reliable. The brands I listed above to not buy I have seen have some pretty big reliability issues in the city, although it seems as though lighning got better, I still dont recomend them even though if forrbidden was on here he would say other wise. Eclipse amps are very nice as well but I dont know the model numbers well enough to suggest which specific ones. If you want eclipse though go to Innovation Autospors being they are far more knowleagable and are far more strait shooting than the other places that carry eclipse in the city.

there are lots of good amps out there, you just have to decide whats right for you.... warranty on any of them shouldnt be a problem as most retailers have an extended warranty program available.... since KK bought  Innovation a month or so ago ( hence the name change from Audio to Autosports ) there shouldnt be any difference shopping between either of them as one owns the other.... you cant go wrong with JL or Rockford....just avoid the obvious cheap stuff like Boss

it's basically gonna boil down to who you feel comfortable dealing with and what product YOU feel will suit your needs
