You can delete this if you want. I just bought a JL Audio Stealthbox for my truck, and am looking for an amp to power it. What type do you guys recommend? I guess I need a 125W amp. It needs to have speaker level inputs since this is going on an otherwise stock system. Thanks for any help you can give an ex contour owner Simon new- '04 Dodge Dakota 4x4.

Now you have an amp to last a long time and grow into. I bought one just because the price was so low... MArk Semper Fi "They've got us surrounded. Poor bastards." -Chesty

I've used these for people not wanting to spend much and they've surprised me a lot. They put out rated RMS power, look decent, and have quite a few control options, such as crossovers, etc. They are also cheap as hell off of eBay. Life: Sexually transmitted and always fatal.
