    the earthquake is a good amp but for a lil less you can find a power acoustik amp that puts out the same power.

    first 3 amps you chose... NO, NO and NO!!! Don't get boss. If you are on a budget like most of us are, do what pedro advised and go with power acoustik. You'll regret getting Boss amps, they are crap

    look for an amp that has a low,very low THD.(total harmonic distortion)

    my PG amps have like .02 thd which means i can crank them and it sounds pretty clean throughout. same with my nine.5 amp.

    i just bought some songs from the "across the universe" sound track and let me tell you at 45 out of 63 on the vol it is loud and clear. song is "let it be" no bass just vocals.
