this is what i plan to do for my car audio when my new s2k arrives next week.

2 way active seas reference components
1 10" seas sub
alpine 9887 +imprint + h701


looking at this setup, i need recommendations for a 2 channel amp to run my components and a mono or 2 way bridged amp to run the sub.

at this point in time i like to know if this setup is recommended for the s2k? i am not looking for full blast over kill, just like to be sure if im cruising top down at 80mph i still can make the audio clearly. planning to sound proof the trunk the floor and the bonnet as well. only mod i will do will be CAi and an exhuast.

thanks in advance for the advices!

i went alpine pdx.

alpine pdx 4.150 is a 4 channel solution.

150wx4 @ 4 ohms.

you could run the comps channel 1 and 2 at 150w each. they test at closer to 175-180 true rms watts on their birthsheets.

sub on channel 3 and 4 bridged mode at 300w. likely closer to 400-450 true rms watts.

or you could go with a 4.100 and bi amp your components and get a 2.150 bridged for the sub.

or you could run two 2.150's.

choices, choices.

of course some will say the alpine hu already skrews up your sq enough and you should run eclipse hu and some sort of european amp like audison or something. or mcintosh or zapco and so on. the alpine is not worthy of the seas stuff.. i don't know really i've never been able to distinguish hu and amp sq's much from one another.

i say just get the alpines.
