Thanks for the info Russ and others,
I was just looking at some Pioneer amps, since all my other car audio in my
truck is Pioneer. I also was looking on Ebay and there are some
reconditioned Pioneer amps fairly cheap. If I did go with a Pioneer Amp, I
would spend the extra money and use all high quality installation
parts/cables since I was told that the installation hardware/wires/cables
are what really help out and make an amp do its best work. Will a 35x4 watt
amp really make a difference though in sound level/volume and sound clarity
or should I go with more watts?? I dont want anything really loud, just
louder and better sounding that what I currently have. I guess at this point
all I know is that I want a 4 channel amp!!
