hey guys
any idea which mcintosh amps i would need to run this following setup

a/d/s 2way front stage
eclipse center channel
a/d/s rear fill
and a set of a/d/s coax in the trunk

my current helix amps are getting extremely hot and often shut off after longplay
also caused my fiberglass amp rack to crack

thanks again

Are these seperates or coaxials? Also, are you planning on seperate amplification for EACH driver?

front stage is seperates
rear fill is coax
trunk is coax
center channel is coax

right now i have front stage bi amped
not sure how different sounding it would be seperate or not

thanks

Since the front stage is bi amped (and since it's a 2 way component set), I'd recommend the MCC404 6 channel amp so you can run the components and the rear fill.

For the center channel and the trunk, all you would need is a 4 channel amp. Mc has some that are configurable between 4, 3 and 2 channel, though I forgot the model number.

I have MC440 from my previous car. (4*50 and 2*100)

I am having my stereo set up next weekend and probably need extra amps like yours since the nubmer of fronts - rears - subs speakers are more than my amp channels.
the biggest car amp from mcintosh is MC4000M (4*100 and 2*300). I guess you can run with both 6 channel(mc440/446) and 4 channel (mc427).

Keep us updated with you system

If your'e interested I have a McIntosh Mc4100 4x100 amp for sale. It was used for two months to power a set of Dynaudio 10in Subs in a sealed custom enclousure. I also have a Mcintosh head unit for sale.
