If it's 2 channel then you're only supposed to connect 2 speakers. Yes you could wire all 4 speakers to it but the impedance drop will overload the driver transistor so it's not worth the risk.

It would be better to use a 4 channel amp but you could use a 2 channel if wired correctly but not really worth it.

no point in a 2ch with 4 speakers as you wont be able to adjust the balance / fader individualy. best get a 4ch or 2x2chs.
you wont need anything overly powerfull for those speakers or youll blow them, they'll sound poo, and will be wasting money...... and a 2000w amp is not a 2000w amp! (unless it cost you about £10,000!)
at best if its pmpo at 1 ohm @ 1000w per channel, by the time you run it at 8 ohm and turn it in to RMS its prob gunna be like 75w per channel.

find a 2 channel amp around £80-£100 (£20-£50 if second hand) and it will run them fine. stay away from any amp that is painted purple tho
idealy the rms value isnt overly important, you want to find an amp that matches the db rating of the speakers.

but at the end of the day, if you have a good head unit with an out put of 4x45w or 4x50, you shouldnt need an amp anyway.






and if you run to much power, your lights will dim when its up loud and you'll have to look at getting a bigger alternator.

vibe slick A0 and vibe slick A1 would be plenty..... and £80 and £118 new.

good good. i thought the amp item number you mentioned first was odd!

vibe are great amps.....but always gets my mind churning over as to why they give you a lovely soft carry bag with it?

i take the amp out of the box, bolt it in the car, and turn it up loud. i dont take it out every night, polish it, and put it in the bag ready for the next day!

and the 4ch A1 on ebay is only £112 with free delivery. bargain.

No modern amp is as good as the old skool stuff, Alot of the time I search for the older amps, lot better sound and build quality.

Alpine v12s were good.

They certainly were, I have been after some Alpine 3558 Juba amps for years but only have some 3555's and 3549's. Also after a chrome Rockford power 1000 but cant aford the hefty price tags even secondhand.
