I own a 2007 Mazda 3 I. Currently, I have the factory deck, with sony xplod 4way 6.5s in all four doors, and the sony xplod 4/3 channel amp pushing them. I picked up a Kenwood W-3011 (12", 400 RMS, 4 ohm) that I decided needed a little more juice. So, I now have a Kenwood 8104D in the mail to push it (probably going to get another sub so I can parallel the load down to 2 OHM.) My question/issue is that I still want to power my door speakers on an amp, as the factory cd player is quite weak. I am currently using the amp's built in line input, and the sub amp I am getting has one as well. I have looked, but haven't found a line input splitter to run both amps...Aside from a LOC, does anyone know how I could work getting signal to both amps? I'm going to be trading out the xplod amp (its too big, I can get smaller to push about the same for the door speakers.) Does anyone know anything about the Boss CH350? (40 RMS, 100 max 4 channel) Size wise, and power rating, it seems like it would fit the bill...Any pros or cons?
Not really on a budget, was actually looking more for the physical size. I don't want two huge amplifiers clogging up my trunk (right now the sony is mounted under my passenger seat, but I'll be moving it to the trunk when I install the kenwood...) so I was looking for a physically small amp. Plus it is only pushing my door speakers, so 30-50 RMS @ 4 ohm on 2/4 channels would be fine.
alpine has some pretty small amps right now but any amp that is gonna power door speakers will be small
/Agree with everyone lol Boss is crappy crap.. like junk parts, PA on the other hand iam picking up two different ones for my own car this week! there was a study done by a prolific car audio guy, more of a challenge to see if you can pick out the difference between a crappy amp and a good amp (Name brand Vs non name) not a single person could tell the difference, ever... what makes an amp good, is its electronic stability, and lasting power, Boss has neither.
