Which Amp?

Post by Joeski »

Looking at getting one of these to go under the passenger seat just to get a bit more bass in the van without taking up any load space...i'm a bit out of touch with audio these days though so not sure which amp to go for...any recommendations? With it only being an 8" 200RMS I don't need anything too powerful...

Cheers,

I have a different Pheonix Gold slim sub under my passenger seat
Phoenix Gold Z8150 Z Series 8" 150w RMS
I also had component speakers fitted
Phoenix Gold SX65CS

I’m no audiophile but it definitely sounds much better than standard
If it ain't broke, fix it 'til it is

good to hear dude! Yeah i'm no audio geek either, just looking for some slightly deeper bass and eventually will upgrade the door speakers as well as the high/lows seem to be a bit all over the place with the standard ones.

I ended up ordering this combo, looking forward to see how it performs:

Yep thats what i went for in the end...now the tricky part of trying to fit the sub in behind the seat...looks like a seat out job :shock:
