As we shift back into car audio talk, I've been pondering my decisions lately.

I'm not sure if I wanna go "all" Alpine.

I've been lookin' around and talkin' to some people.. and I'm thinkin' of going with different amps.

This amp by Directed Audio-
$300
800w @ 2ohms
1200w @ 1ohm

Why? Because I may go with 3 12in Type Rs      By running 3 Type Rs, I can potentially reach 1.33ohms by wiring the coils in series and wiring the subwoofers in parallel.. which would be give me around ~1000w   .. supposedly. lol And for right now, I could just go with 2 Type Rs at 800w.. which would be fine... but if I wanted to, I'd still be able to rock 3!

I was also lookin' at this amp by JBL as well.

Then this multichannel amp by JBL-
$105
60w x 4 @ 4 ohms
145w x 4 @ 2 ohms

Why? Like $150 less than the amplifier I was going to get and 45 more watts per channel.

So let me know what you guys think of those.

I'm still not sure if I wanna go with Type Rs though. I've been lookin' at other companies such as Pioneer, JL Audio, Rockford Fosgate, and others  

So many friggin' choices!

Small cars are great, less fuel, less pollution, easy  parking..

Very nice first car; wish mine was that solid.

Also, you should look into getting your frame and the backs of your body panels/fender wells/etc shot with some rubberized undercoat. Not sure how it is in VA, but here in Ohio they salt the hell out of the roads whenever more than three snowflakes fall. Salt = rust = death to any car that's not properly protected, especially cars from the 70's and earlier. I say this only because the body looks to be in brilliant condition and I'd like to see it stay that way.
