Recommended Mid/High Amplifier

[jazzie366]

Hello!

I have a 2001 Nissan Sentra, it's my first car and I love car audio so I put a massive amp and subwoofers in, with a mids and highs amp. There is a problem though, the mids and highs amp isn't powerfull enough/distorts at too low of a volume to overcome the bass.

I'm running two Pyle Blue Wave 1200 watt subwoofers on a Powerbass 1200.2X, in a box that matches their needs damn near perfectly.

Anyways, I have a shitty walmart Pioneer amplifier for the mids and highs and it likes to distort, a lot. I have some FMod passive crossovers inline for 200hz right now--yes, I know the frequency is high, but the crossovers let block all subsonic frequencies, and damnpen the higher ones up to 200hz, so the mids stay warm-- but that doesn't help because the amp is shit.

I opened the amp and checked the output transistors, not only where there a lack of output transistors, they were not large enough for the power either. I'm not bashing on Pioneer, they make amazing head units, but their amps need some work.

So, what do you guys recommend I do? I got my eyes on a Hifonics Brutus BRX160.2 (CEA-2006 certified) amp. Thanks for the help!

P.S. - I need a new battery, the 7 year old battery dies in 30 seconds of 70% volume, I have 0 gauge running it all. Thanks!

first problem is your avatar.

Second, what mids and highs are you running. Could be a ton of things but I am guessing the amp isn't the problem. What is its rated power?

Amp is not the problem unless it's half way blown or defective
