What do I need to know about picking the right amp?

I want to get a 4ch amp to power component speakers in the front and regular speakers in the rear (no room for subs). I have a Kenwood HU and Kenwood speakers, and I'd like to stay with Kenwood with the amp.

Help is appreciated....

 

If you really want to stay with Kenwood, check out the Excelon line of amps. You do not want to go with another brand?

 

I'd prefer a Kenwood just to make everything the same, but i ain't married to 'em.

 

What is your price range?

 

i'm not cheap, but i can't see spending more than $250-$300...like i said, i just need to power the main 4 speakers, no subs involved.

 

get a fawking JL Audio 300/3 bro! if uir gunna spend $300....

 

Thats definately doable, if you really not into SQ and probably don't think you will expand your system, then you can stay with Kenwood, I am not sure the price of their amps, but you can also look into the Eclipse EC3422. What kind of speakers are you looking to buy?

 

i've already bought some Kenwood components for the front, and another set of Kenwoods for the rear...don't remember what number they are; they're downstairs in the trunk, uninstalled.

again, i'm not married to this stuff...but since i already have 'em....

 

i would tell you to get a JL amp.
