Since i sold my alpine v12, i have been searching for a new setup for my speakers and sub(90X2 rms in front, 60X2rms for rears and 150X2 for subs)

I found these two xtant amps being sold by same seller on ebay and was wondering what you guys think. I was thinking i would use one for the fronts and one sub and the other for the rears and the second sub. They are both 3 channel amps. specs for each are 60X2 + 100X1 for sub.

Also, can someone please educate me on whether this model of xtant amps can be used as a 5 channel. i know one model of xtant amps does that. (not sure which one).

please advise
thanks

the only potential issue is that if you have two subs sharing the same air space, you will have problems running separate amps for them... not that it can't be done, but the output levels of the amps will have to be matched perfectly - test tones and a voltmeter at minimum, preferably an oscilloscope to match the outputs of both amps to the subs...

other than that potential issue, it seems like a good deal...

i understand.
maybe i'll just use just one sub channel with both subs bridged instead of running them separately.

in my professional opinion....you are going to have one hell of a time getting these amps setup. Xtants were a PITA to get to sound right, especially the old chrome cased ones.

i been thinking.
i think i might just go all out and get the element design nine.5
it was newly released.
anyone heard any feedback on it yet?

The ED amps have been proven to be very good amplifiers for the money. I'd stay away from the subwoofers just cause of their "special" glue.

But if ur willing to shell out the money for the Nine5.1 anyways than maybe Look into the Memphis Belle.

You might be able to find it for cheaper than that site if u do a little searching around.
