I'm looking for a 4 channel amp. 50w rms x 4 is enough at 4 ohms of course
I'd like it to have seperate gains for the front and back speakers(different power ratings).
Price range ~$0~$150
thanks for the input

Poormanq45..
look at customsuburbs 2nd link. Its the 4-channel of that 2-channel us acoustics that's be so popular around here lately. I just bought one and I like it.
It is the cheapest of those three *and* has lowest THD eh?

OK, I think i'll go with the US acoustics amp.
Is the car domain store a reputable website?

the Polk C400.4 (or whatever the model # is) is great...
oh, wait, that's a $500 amp. Silly me...

oh yeah, see if crutchfield still has the MB Quart amps on sale. Don't rember the price or specs, but it was a great amp at a killer deal...

Poormanq45 thanks for starting this thread because I was about to start one along the same line. I am also looking for a 4 channel amp between 50-70 rms but money isn't as much of a factor say up to $350 but I want one with built in crossovers on the front and back channels. As much as I love that US acoustics amp it doesn't seem to have that. Any Ideas or suggestions?
Anyone have any experiences with these?

USG4125 RedRazor mentioned is nice. The only problem is see there is the small print "Backorder" will ship in 2-3 weeks. The Us Acoustics is $209 (it has a bit more power at 4 ohms, but you can get 110x4 @ 2ohms form the Hifonics all day long). I'd recommend Hifonics a 5 channel zx8000 it has the same THD %.03 and it is 2 ohm stable. @ 4 ohms 4x55 + 1x200w RMS @ 2 ohm 4 x 110 + 1 x 300-Watts RMS You can get this shipped for $225 from a reputable company. 5 instead of 4 channells (use one for a sub). ------------- (1) Kenwood Excelon Head Unit KDC-X589 (24 bit Burr Brown DAC, 3 X 4 volt RCA).
(1) RF Punch 250A2 - running the components.
(1) Hifonics 6.5" Atlas Components (18db crossovers).

us_test what are you talking about?
Look again. That US acoustics amp is $140... not $209.. a big difference for a clean as hell 50x4.
https://www.cardomain.com/item/USAUSC4065
Yea Poormanq45 sounddomain.com/cardomain.com is an absolutely great site. They are Authorized deaelers for every brand they carry .. and.. as you can see, they do so at a good price. I've gotten lotsa stuff from them.
Like you say.. budged = $150.. then you're not doing better than that US acoustics no way. ------------- "I'm finished!" - Daniel Plainview

sedate - I'm talking about the last post about US Acoustics which had this link https://www.sonicelectrnix.com/item_1838.html# this is $209. Check again Sedate. ------------- (1) Kenwood Excelon Head Unit KDC-X589 (24 bit Burr Brown DAC, 3 X 4 volt RCA).

sedate - it' all good. poormanq45 - don't know anything about Warrior series. I did find it for $125 online. I read a review on the 2 channel amp which was favorable. ------------- (1) Kenwood Excelon Head Unit KDC-X589 (24 bit Burr Brown DAC, 3 X 4 volt RCA).
