Posted April 29, 200619 yr Do they stll make those small, cheap amplifiers???You know: like the Sherwood 25 x 4 (max wattage) type deal (for use with a factory radio).
April 29, 200619 yr Alpine used to make a lot of those types of amplifiers, with high level inputs for an OEM source...30Wx2 ones pop up on Ebay all the time.A "25Wx2" amplifier that's rated in max wattage really sin't much of an improvement over the head unit itself, though. Certainly not worth the hassle of installing an outboard amp.

Certainly not worth the hassle of installing an outboard amp.wow, this coming from you?no, even a 25x2 amp is a great improvemnet over any amp inside a h/u. it's definitely worth the trouble of installing, especially on the hig end of things. maybe you wouldn't see much of a difference from a 17 x 4 wrms h/u to a 25 x 4 amplifier on subs, but i guarantee you'd notice a difference on your mids and highs. a big difference. less distortion. more output. better control. all the things someone like you crave. and in all honesty, i would wager on that.wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
April 29, 200619 yr A 25Wx2 amplifier rated in "max watts" is what, 12.5 watts RMS?So that's less than the head unit in your example

May 7, 200619 yr If you look at a post I made in the for sale section I had a few sherwood amps listed! Iam sure my guy still has them.. or were those the hart.. I think both are nice!http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/i...?showtopic=5594
May 7, 200619 yr Hmm...that's a good amp for the house Run it off a 12VDC bench supply, or hell, a small gel cell and float charger.
May 7, 200619 yr Author Small and cheap?http://cgi.ebay.ca/a-d-s-PowerPlate-Car-St...1QQcmdZViewItem<{POST_SNAPBACK}>That would have been perfect......do they still make those?Any other similar items???
