    hope I didn't post this twice, but Go to ebay and search 9712405521 you should be very happy with that amp. its buy it now with shipping for just around $330.00- you'll thank me. these are wonderful amps and highly underrated

    i second the JBL. they make good stuff and pretty clean power too. I have said this before but upgrade your electrical. I found out the hard way and blew my alt. I got a kinetiks battery (cap killer) and a yellow top under the hood. It holds a good amount of juice for when my truck is off. Dont push it too hard when your ride is on otherwise you may have to plan a funeral for your alternator

    I can triple the JBL recommendation. I had a bad experience with JBL back when best buy carried them (gt series?), but the newer 2004+ GTO and power and GTi aresome of the best amps I have ever heard.
