Gslin Neutral Newbie March 30, 2005 Author Share March 30, 2005 Maybe i budget too little for a new amp. Can someone advise how much does a moderate amp cost? Tks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gslin Neutral Newbie March 30, 2005 Author Share March 30, 2005 Hi othello, wat is d watt output for that kind of price? i heard so much of pre-amp, wat exactly is d function of this item? Your advice is appreciated, tks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Othello Supersonic March 30, 2005 Share March 30, 2005 mine says 900W ..... pre-amp is when you wanna play front comps + woofer .... unless your HU have 3 RCA pre-out ( that means you can control from your HU), normally have to get pre-amp .......... another way is to upgrade pre-amp loh .......

Thumb Neutral Newbie March 30, 2005 Share March 30, 2005 Recently hv some extra cash($300-350), would like to install a 4 channels amp. Can someone advise the model & current mkt price? thanks. Got my Rodek sm7550 5-channel amp for $450+installation. Amp comes with builtin crossovers. hence only need 1 RCA output from stock HU and split into 3 channels. Using Amp to filter to front,rear and sub. Suggest you get a 4 channel amp and bridge the rear to the sub. your rear speakers can be directly driven by your HU and normally only for rear fill. That could save u some cost. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
