Hey, looks like i recently fried my amplifier a JBL GTO 504. note this is a car stereo

so now it looks like i need a new one, and i really want to get a good one so i dont fry that one to.

 

my speaker setup is:

Front speakers: http://www.pioneer.e...723I/specs.html

Back speakers:http://www.pioneer.e...924I/specs.html

Sub:http://eu.jbl.com/tl...English EU).pdf

Hey. I bought my audio from a website called theloudest.co.uk (a UK based company. I know, I know!). However, they can negotiate postage outside the UK. You could have a browse at what they have to offer and see if that would work out financially better for you.

 

I use 2 of their amps (4 channel and a monoblock for my sub).

 

Here is the link to the website:

I hope this helps

Not really gonna be able to help you, OP, but how do you like those front speakers? 

 

I'm looking for some mid-heavy coaxials because my current ones are treble-happy and nomegusta.jpg

Hey @adnartion,

 

I found a good car amp that should easily power all your speakers and your sub. http://www.pioneer.com.au/au/products/25/29/182/GM-D8604/page.html.%C2'> is much cheaper than the current amp you want and is more powerful. You might want to check the specs before you buy to buy just to make sure it meets all your requirements. Also you should find out why your last amp died so it doesn't happen again. You will also need to find a site that ships to your country, maybe try parts-express.com.

They are pretty treble happy to be honest. But my problem with them is that i cant hear them too well over the speakers in the back. If i try to adjust it i am affraid i will blow them.

I would love to see that amp you speak of. The last amp died because it was to small and i tried to pull way to much power out of it but still, it lasted almost a year.

The amp i found is powerfull enought. i just want to se if any of you clever people could save me some money

Hey sorry I forgot to include the link (late nights making me forgetful). Here it is - http://www.pioneer.com.au/au/products/25/29/182/GM-D8604/page.html. It's $399 so much cheaper than the one you were looking at.

i see the power of that amp is insane! i just wonder why is it so much cheaper? have they used worse components, is the build quality bad or is pioneer just cheaper over all? i found a package with that amp for a really nice price, so it is really tempting but i wanna know for sure

I've loved every Pioneer product I've ever owned, so I doubt you'd have a problem with the amp. They're one of the major players in car audio, but for some reason highly overlooked, which might be why it is so cheap.

actually most of my setup is pioneer just came to think of it^^ i might as well just order the amp and a new sub in a sett then  since it is just 20$ more with the sub x) 

do i have to worry about the amp not being able to output enought watt to my speakers since i have 2x350w 2x550w and a 1200w sub?

Pioneer is amazing I have had a pioneer amp for 3 years with no problems at all. First thing is check the dimensions of the amp to make sure it will fit. Also are you getting a new sub? If so just give us a link so we can make sure it will work with the amp, it most likely would because that amp can support up to 4 subs! Also here is the amazon link if you want some reviews of it - http://www.amazon.com/Pioneer-4-Channel-Bridgeable-Amplifier-GM-D8604/dp/B00E1BRITU.

I bought the amp and the sub in a set that was on sale even got some speakers with it for just 459$ pretty sure they work together since evetything is pioneer the firm i bought it from is big on this kind of stuff will most likley sell the speakers . I will also figure out if i like the new or old sub bether then sell one of those to But anyways thank you for the help this is the reason why this forum is my first choice
