Amp choice for components + 6x9s

sorry I posted it earlier in the wrong section!

I have a choice between the Kenwood KAC-8402 4ch and the MTX Thunder 4244 4ch amp for powering my speakers

I have some Punch components in the front, and orion co690 6x9s in the back.

which of these 2 amps would be better for my use? the MTX probably has more power, where as the kenwood has adjustable crossovers vs the pre-set ones on the MTX

Which have the bigger fuse??? This will tell you which is the most powerfull, beside MTX is better than Kenwood. I will use a woofer, instead the 6x9.

Not looking for a sub
Just took one out actually

I don't care so much about power more about clearity

The x over is why I'm even asking about these two

If you have them both on hand, try them both and see which suits your needs better.

Personally I'd go with the one with the crossovers, but all else being equal I doubt you'll hear any difference at all.
