I've been getting a lot more into custom installs. I've primarily used Kicker and RF for amps. But they are a bit pricey. I'm looking for some suggestions on really good amps but a little less in price then the big brand name prices. I just don't wanna get into the Flea Market Brands. Anyway's any help would be great.

less pricey than Kicker and RF and with similar performance? The only one that comes to mind is US Acoustics. Stay away from Profile/Legacy/Audiovox/Rampage/LA Audio/Pyle/Pyramid etc, unless you don't care about SQ or how long they last.

Very much do care about sound Quality, I know back in the day brands like orion where the one's to get, and I've noticed the RF's new stuff is really bad, and even kicker's lastest isn't all that. So I'm looking for a switch. and I think you just listed all the Flea Market Brands except BOSS.,, Anyone else ?

I've had good luck with US Acoustics and Crunch (believe it or not). And they are usually less pricey then rf or kicker. But you won't get the SQ you will out of RF or Kicker. You may want to look into JBL or Eclipse amps. I've seen them priced less the RF too. And there are other "Flea Market Brands" to stay away from as well...Mobile Authority, Lanzar, Power Acoustik. I think they are all made by the same company too.
