i got pioneer splits

220w max 60w nom

& pioneer 3 way 6 x 9s
220w max & 40w nom

no subs, just amping these up.... :)

what amp?? i know everyone will say kicker, so i guess why am i bothering asking???

i heard them both through this pioneer amp in a shop
sounded excellant..
i dunno what model it was...

and was cheep.. with all wires & installation..
save me the hassel for an extra $50

anyway i want opinions
quality over loudness

Actually mate you willprbably find I am the only one who will back kicker - but I reckon it was great - and if you ask anyone who was at the cruise on Saturday night - when I cranked the system to show volume it was bloody loud and had perfect quality the entire way up the volume scale!

But you are looking for a 4 channel amp that puts out semi-decent powers - just go to car audio stores and check it out - is you have pioneer already - y not look at their amps to keep everything universal?? Surely Pioneer have recommendations of their own for their speakers!

But if u listened to my system you would know kicker do a bloody good job!!

Well i can back Cadence amps.. im using one.

Pioneer sound great aswell.. Although they seem to be more expensive than most others..

I have a Q4000.. 4x100

It all comes down to how much you want to spend.

*waits for berrjona to go on about shit japan brands :lol: *

Yah il swear till im pass out about how good pioneer are...im only eva had pioneer n boston..n will say both r great. Ive got a weconic amp atm...its good 2

mate have had kenwood, sansoui n sony...i no like!!!

yeah well i dont even remember what one i heard

it sound good in there though

i mean between the HU and amp it sounded good

i got it down to $500 with wires.. and install
its a last years model i think.....

he kept taking $$ off it cause i was litterally walking out the store cause i wanted to go home, i guess he really wanted to sell, i wasnt gonna buy it then and there anyway.. but $500 seemed a good price for how it sounded, i gotta do more shopping still

cheap amp..... 4x100wrms blaupunk velocity series.... think its like $450
german brand and will sound alot nicer then the pioneer one

Ive got a weconic amp atm...its good 2

mate have had kenwood, sansoui n sony...i no like!!!

I dont trust Weconic - I bought a 170watt per channel home theater amp buy them and and it was loud through 2 channels, but the other 4 sucked bad. And cos their from Germany doesent mean there all unbreakable. I had no support from the company solving my problem either. My solution - return the amp and buy kenwood. sure it cost more than double the weconic amp, but now it got a reciever, and sounds the shit.

it depends exactly what u want in terms of amps. Look you can purchase amps for 3-4K that will put out about 2K RMS of power. These will be brands most have not heard of anyways as they do not make the cheaper stuff.
Otherwise Alpine, Pioneer, Sony, Soundstream, Kicker blah blah blah there are so many good amps out nowdays with dozens of different makes. Look don't buy an amp because of a brand buy the amp that is best suited to the job.

I have used so many different components over last 3 years it's not funny. 4 head units, 6 amps, 2 changers, 6 subs, 2 sets of 4" coaxils, 3 sets of 6" splits, 3 sets of 6*9s, 7*10s, 2 capacitors. Brands I have used Sony, Pioneer, Kicker, Clarion, Cerwin Vega, Soundstream, Kenwood, MB Quart, Alpine, Lightning Audio, Stinger and there are probably more. The main standouts of these were definately MB Quart-thats why I still use them but the equipment from the other stuff was fine too.

By the way Sony isn't that bad, maybe there are other problems with wiring or voltage.
