how did you come to throwing bottom end stuff in with not so bad stuff?
Some of that stuff sure is not SQ, good for noise, 1kHz tones and static.
the best out of them and will do what they say is the following brands
Alpine,JBL,Sundown,Infinity,Kenwood,Clarion
They will do what they say but don`t expect more from them!

Some of that stuff is way over rated at the factory and some with sound to noise ratios about 60-70dB
If you want SQ look for around 100dB S/N ratio
There is a few I can`t say about as they closed shop online and no info is about for them.


Your looking for cheap good stuff buy good used stuff or let us know what kind power you need at what ohms and maybe we can point you with something you would be happy with for a bit at a good price(If your like most of use we are never too too happy and always changing in pursuit for better)

even second hand would be allright what im looking at for the mono amp is either one amp that goes 1ohm between 1000 and 1500watt rms and for a 2 channel i need a small footprint and power from 75 to 125watt rms

right now the clarion 2 channel sounds allright for me and the sundown sae1000d
