That amp is plenty for what you have
Distortion level is important aspect to understanding the amp abilities.
That amp....sorry to tell you....is not even close to putting out 400 clean watts (< 0.08% distortion)
LOL I have that amp. It's right next to me in my bedroom right now.This one here would do well enough for me... fuck spending 500 bucks on something that I don't quite need as much as, say... gas? I'm comfortable with spending a lil less and getting less distortion, Pioneer USA - GM Series
25w rms amp? That's how much most aftermarket head units put out.
Anyways, output power isn't everything. Alpine equipment are known for very good sound quality. Sundown, Audison, etc. have "moderate" output levels; but people love them due to signal quality.
i have to disagree with the alpine statement. I used to love the way they look. and dont get me wrong they sound good but a high volume the distorion is horrible. the more you turn it up the more muffled it sounds.
Its not my speakers either i have JL C5 6.5 components up front with kicker 6x9 in the back. My Eclipse in my truck sounds so much better even when you turn the volume up. It gets louder not muffled.
my next CDP is prolly going to be JVC or Pioneer. they have definitly stepped up there game in the past years. Eclipse is overrated now and not as user friendly.
with the right setup even american pro will sound good....
haha not at all! when i bought my sub the guy asked whats it going in and i replied a crx. his mouth droped and said you will blow yourself to peaces. I said you watch to much fast and the furios.
i think its the cd 6998 i think. I have the ipod control with it. I like the way it looks but it sucks when i have to turn it up only to 23. at 24 you can tell the audible difference, like really notice it.
t eh 2 boston 10's pound but not as loud as they should becuase i cant turn up. If i turn the bass up it overpowers the highs and mids alittle.
sorry guys but i like my system to be so loud and clear that you cant tell. the type that the bass is so loud but you cant tell becae the mids and highs are just as loud and clean with no distortion. thats what i'm working on with my s-10.
