right, my personal amp manufacturer favorite would have to be JL or Rockford Fosgate. Alpine do make some good amps, i still have one laying about somewhere. Again as with most things, it all depends on what you intend on using the amp for. Light use would be Alpine probably, however out and out power would be a much more expensive and better made amp.

JL have created the Mini demo car, which has just taken the best sounding vehicle at the CES 2004 contest in the US. JL amps use a technology called Absolute Symmetry, this basically ups the fidelity of whatever input goes into the amp. This feature is only built into the class A 'E-series' amplifiers. Its worth spending the money.
