Okay, having a hard time with this. Trying to figure out what to go with to power the Rev 10s I have. The Rev's are rated at 300W RMS per, so they need power. Don't want to underpower them.
Trying to decide among the following:
JL Audio HD750/1 -- $599
750 watts RMS x 1 (1.5 - 4 ohms per channel)
I assume this amp would give me about 375 watts per speaker bridged on mono @4ohms
This amps most expensive, also carries that JL name that I trust. Lots of good feedback on this amp, and still produces the power at lower voltages. Wouldn't be able to put the marine version in my budget.
WetSounds Syn4 -- $559
400 Watts RMS x 2 @ 4 Ohms Bridged Mono
This one gets great praise as well, is a little less expensive, and IS designed for the marine environment. This is the one I'm leaning towards at this time. Also the most power output.
Wetsounds HT4 -- $449
300 Watts RMS x 2 Bridged Mono... is this at 4ohms?
Lower end of the power spectrum, but also lower end of the price. I think I'd probably eliminate this one, because at 450 bucks, might as well spend the extra 100 for an extra 100 watts per channel and Syn Series amp. Thought I'd get some opinions here.
PPI 900.4 -- $189
4 ohms: 300 watts x 2 chan.
Lowest price, lots of great reviews, still on the low end of the power output. Still considering this because buying this amp would allow me a WS420 at the same time instead of having to wait. I hear good things, and reviews are great, but don't trust the brand. It is a class D amp also, so it's efficient, just unsure about making the leap to a "low end" amp like this. Also, assuming this isn't marine components.
Also heard the ARC audio equivalent of the Syn4 is a good alternative, but again, non-marine components from my understanding.
Need to make this decision. Need help. My top choice right now is the Syn4 because of Power, marine components, and slightly lower price compared to the JL., convince me otherwise if this doesn't sound like the way to go!
Thanks for all input!
