once again...amp help

okay...
so when i got my eclipse head unit put (thanks 87GTA =]) i asked the guy at the stereo shop what he would give me for my old one..he gave me 300watt 6x9 Concept 3 way speakers...there amazing xP but my amp can only make them sound good when its on 2ch mode...soooooo.....i need a high output amp that has 4ch stability...looking for about 300watts per channel...so...1200watts 4ch...which amp should i get?

If your speaker looks like that than you need a 150Wx4 amp. 300 is only peak power..

But I'd go with any of these:
Hifonics ZXi6410
Kicker ZX650.4
JBL GTO1004

Re: once again...amp help

Thx 4 da subs!
LoL
Does it sound good or what?
Is the difference with bass night and day?
lol
u dnt have subs yet huh?

And sorry for breaking it to you like this..but those concept speakers are pretty cheap..so in essence...u pretty much got sorta taken....I'd save up n get myself some Pioneer, kenwood,Polk,Jbl,Boston,Infinity,Alpine's,Eclipse's etc...

And u are probably looking at the max power in the speakers..never look at max power...always look at the RMS wattage....the maximum power is the most power the speaker will take without blowing....but you should never ever use that as a guide.I'd get myself some better speakers that matching the output of the amp instead of another amp to match the power of the speaks.....just my .02
