Are there amps still any good I was looking at the P4004 to run my front and rear kappa's.  If not can you throw out some brands and sizes that would work.

i would agree with that statement about RF amps. whats your budget for this amp ? i would suggest soundstream, alpine ,eclipse,crossfire,and MTX . thats just a start. www.soundstream.com you are going to want to look at the picasso series.

what are they rated at? i would stay twice the rms rating and keep the amp down so they amp don't work hard and youll get clean sound from it.

go just below your rated RMS power handling. and set your gain to match the preout voltage. from your H/U.another thing when looking at 4 channel amps. look at the THD. @ 4 ohms. the lower the better.
