Pioneer GM Digital Series, Best bang for buck.


Recommended Posts

So, I just moved from a Hifonics ZRX600.4 amp which was donated to me to power my Infinity 6030CS components and Infinity 6x9's to the Pioneer GMD-9500. This amp is amazing. It is so much clearer and runs cool. I just thought I'd recommend these amps to anybody looking for them. My local shop, Stereo Town in Fremont, let me get it for $200 out the door. For $200, I doubt there is a better amp out there. Also, even though it's Class D, I have WAY LESS noticeable white noise than I did with my Hifonics, which is an A/B.

Yeah, local shop will match Sonic, but not refurbished stuff on eBay.

Not really. I got an amp that has local warranty support and is brand new, rather than some unwarranted, used amp from somebody I don't know, that I'll have to wait a week for.

I also like the Clarion Class D 4-Channel that was designed by Zapco's founder. They are around $260-270 at Sonic, I believe. Only problem is they have a fan and I run my amp under my seat, so there'd be a constant hum, so I went with the Pioneer.

By the way, the Pioneer was run at 90% deck volume for about two hours on a 90 degree day and was just a bit warm to the touch. It never distorted.

these amps are sooo weak, i speak from experience

If by weak, you mean they do more than their rated power and don't overheat, I have to agree. Or, are you expecting a four channel amp to drive your subwoofers, or something?

Power is power regardless of its function. I've seen many low power setups ran off 4the channelsv
