JVC Amp or Other Recommendations?

[Honda]

Has anyone has experience with this amp? JVC KS-AX5102
http://www.jvc.com.au/car-av/amplifiers/ks-ax5102

I've also been looking at jaycar response 150RMS- but it seems there are mixed reviews going around

I'm planning to get a 2ch amp.
- 4ohm @ 100-150 RMS at each channel (set to 80RMS)

It will be used to run Morel Maximo Coaxials, their specs are:
- 4ohm @ 80RMS
- Peak 160W
- 55-22,000Hz

I'll be open to any recommendations

look at hertz, audison, focal, infinity, Jl audio, polk even alpine brands like that to run ur morels you want a good quality amp. low as possible distortion rate

Im actually considering the solid 4 for the misses car only running 6.5 splits and 6.5 2 ways AND because of the hi/low feature with an automatic signal detection

The Focal 2 Amp is 75W @ 4ohms however, the morels are good at 80rms and I think its potentially can go higher

Running the Focal 2 at full 75W, wouldn't that strain the amp?

Technically. This is just an example of a better quality amp. The lower the distortion rate is the cleaner the signal is. Remember a lot of the rating are at 14.4 volts the car runs approx at 13.xx volts. Just look into better amps are u after sq or SPL?

14.4 volts the car runs approx at 13.xx volts- Would that mean the battery isn't capable to run that amp?

I think SQ. I want strong bass while maintaining its quality.

Sorry if they are noob questions, I'm just new with the terms and all

whats your budget?

Great choice of components, seems like you've done your research.

JVC amps on the other hand... not so good. Audison gets my vote

[Honda]

whats your budget?

For the amp, I would like to spend around the 200 mark because I'll have to spend another 50-100 on a wiring kit for installation.

But I'm willing to stretch the 200 budget for the amp if there are noticeable benefits from it.

Ur going to need to stretch ur budget. I suggest you buy a 4 channel n bridge it. Min 50-75wrms x4.

Yeah I guess I'm thinking of sourcing products from USA or something.

If the amp was to have a RRP I would say around the 200-350 AUD mark but you know you can always get it cheaper elsewhere, if research is done.

Just some noob questios-
How does an amp work? for example, is it similar to the way the HU works? set the bass boost, voltage etc?
When the amp is installed, I'll have to do those settings manually on the amp right or is it still done on the HU as normal?
I ask because I really like the settings on the HU at the moment with the lame stock speakers lol

I don't want the best of the best. Just want something decent to power the Maximo without overheating as I don't want them to run on the HU.
Amps are so expensive!!

Maybe it will be good if you can give me decent examples of a 200 and 300 amp if you were to choose. Then I could understand the way you guys think and it gives me some understanding of the pros and cons of each.

Jaycar

I have considered jaycar response 4ohms @150rms x 2ch for $150~. After doing some research, it seems it is commonly used to power subwoofers as they provide strong power but lack quality (subs don't need much quality as its just doofdoof lol).

I'm not an expert but putting one thing with another, I don't think it is BEST suited towards front speakers at the price range. I could probably add another 50-100 or so to sacrifice watts with quality but with my limited knowledge, its hard to find the right one.

But I'm putting jaycar response in high regard as a very good budget amp.
