Hey guys, I got a nice Kenwood one that was like 250$. I dont know the model, cuz I got it for christmas, but it does like 27 x 4 continuous. BUt its like, I know the reciver(head unit) is good, and I got some new speakers in, but I cant go that loud without the speakers popping and stuff. and my friends(who are more into car stereos then I) say that I need a new amp, and that even just a new 200 watt amp would help a lot and make it sound really clearn and get some more oompf. what small amp would you guys recommend for speakers, not a sub.

I'd recommend a Sony Xplod 600w 4 channel amp. They dont cost too much, and they make ur speakers sound real good. I'm running a whole system with 2 12inch subs too it and it still pounds good
so that JBL amp you would recommend to run on 4 speakers?

If I were you I would go with something a little more powerful than that JBL. However it all depends on what your speakers are. What kind of speakers are they, and how many RMS watts are they rated at?
2 jbl's in those square boxes behind the rear bench, you know, the little shelf by the rear seats under the windsheild. and I have two bloupunk speakers inteh doors up front, all rated to take 100watts.
