billy101 Posted September 2, 2011 Report Posted September 2, 2011 Hi guys, I'm looking to upgrade a little bit. I have about $280 on a bestbuy store credit gift card. I was thinking of getting something car audio related. I only have a 2channel amplifier right now (eclipse 3322 - pretty old). I can get a Power Acoustik BAMF 1600/4 for $130 shipped to my door. Is that brand alright? I don't want to buy it to have it fail in a month, or be DOA. Has anyone experimented/used these amplifiers? I looks like a good deal for the money but I would like to know what I'm getting into before I commit to buy it. Here's a link. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Power+Acoustik+-+1600W+Class+AB+Bridgeable+4-Channel+MOSFET+Amplifier/9027135.p?skuId=9027135&id=1218009772145 If there are better amps from bestbuy, or something else you'd buy for your car; audio wise, let me know!!

billy101 Posted September 2, 2011 Author Report Posted September 2, 2011 Alright then, Power Acoustik is out of the question then. How about a Kicker DX4004? It's $250.

863JOE Posted September 5, 2011 Report Posted September 5, 2011 kicker will be better then the power acoustik. I'd go with a pioneer gm-d500f they're offering. I'm very impressed by Pioneers 2011 line up, went to a briefing on it all a few months back. Heck, it influenced me to put a pioneer avic DD in my dash. Kicker or Pioneer get my vote. 2010 Altima Coupe Kenwood DNX9990HD JL C5 components Rockford T1692's JL HD600/4 JL HD 750/1 JL 12W7AE 2.5 cubes @ 33hz
