5 channel amp recommendation?
I am switch to a 5 channel since I currently have an alpine 4 channel.
I need it to power a 10inch sub (not sure what yet) and the polk MM's in front and rear.
I'm looking for more cost / value / price. I dont want to spend an arm and a leg but want something decent.
Thoughts?

You could add just a amp for the sub, thats what I did and am happy with the results.Added a Kicker 750 for the sub and love it , was about $300.00
I am by far an expert , went with suggestions from others. Good Luck.

If you're looking for a good value, I'm very happy with my HiFonics ZXi8010. Some have reported a problem with overheating, but if you stick within the recommended specs and set it up right it doesn't heat up much at all.

Want to spend a bit more: http://www.woofersetc.com/p600/REF65...-Amplifier.htm
A bit more still, the one I have: http://www.woofersetc.com/p5453/DC65...Processing.htm
I haven't tried it in my vette yet, just got the car Monday. Planning on installing in a couple months. The amount of control offered by the dc reference series is mind boggling.
