[Haibane]

Get a JBL 600.1

[loismustdie]

well thats about double the power i am lookin for and its goin into a small car=small alt.... i was thinkin maybe the jbl 300.1

this can handle what you want:

authorized dealers charge about $500-$600...

What is with you and recommending overpriced equipment? The JBL equipment costs almost half the ebay cost and works just as well if not better for his setup. Alpine is good too. I like JL and all, but way to expensive...

No one said anything about gto

Also the ebay cost of the JL is almost as much as the MSRP of the JBL... The MSRP of the JL is like 400 is it not?

Ebay of GTO http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...sPageName=WDVW

i think i have decided on either the jbl 300.1 or the rockford power 351m....which everone i can find cheaper on ebay i guess....

we use jbl at work to handle some of our P.A. and Pro Sound duties along with Bogen and Crown. I know for a fact jbl kickass and I would recommend it for any commercial app in a heartbeat. they really know how to throw (project) sounds. but when they switched from 110/220/440volt systems to 12volts I personally think they lost something

car audio, i'm thinking mmats, MA (the higher end), Alpine V, hifonics (they remind me of early 90's targa), JL (of course), clarion, boston, and pioneer

that is the most sporadic list of car audio manufacturers that I've ever seen in one sentence before. You actually have JL in the same sentence as Pioneer and MA, without even mentioning anything remotely high end

[Haibane]

This is true...

he already decided on jbl (the pro sound people) so i'm not going to link up on all of my suggestions, but here's a few that can get the job done w/out breaking a sweat...

not bad for $300 and you get power in reserve

there's no competition, professional engineers said they measured up to 733 watts rms, 50% higher, (not lower like most companies) than rated output and said it won't quit no matter what. read for yourself.

they all got what you need in every line...

go with the alpine mrd-m301. i just got one to power my alpine type-r 12 and it sounds great. i found a brand new 301 on the net for $208.
