as some of you know, my MB Quart amp blew a couple of weeks ago. and instead of 800w rms, i now have something like 120w rms from my old cadence amp......... :cry: clarionmagna's father is currently trying to fix it, but on the chance that he cant, what sort of amp should i be looking at?

it must be 4 channel. and must have some decent power.

Actually, I have a spare Picasso. With 4x110 watts rms. 880w rms total.

18" x 11". Can fit in the same position ur mb Quart is but may need to be mounted (bolted down) due to the weight. It is pretty heavy compared to the MB Quart.

Awesome quality, 0.02% total harmonic distortion :shock:
Platinum 4 gauge inputs (Im using 2 ga on it still)
I know that means nothing to you anyway ;)

Im still unsure wether Im gonna use it in my system or not but if it does get sold I wouldnt mind keeping it in the community.

So I'll let you know
