Question

I'm upgrading my speakers (MY99) with some Infinity 605cs's.

I want to run them off an amp, rather than the HU. I was thinking of the Alpine MRVT-320 2-Channel amp, but wondered if I should get the 4-channel one.

What does the extra 2 channels give you??

OK, I'm guessing you couldn't drive rear speakers, just the fronts.

oh, and no sub.

right?

The other two channels could drive the rears, but better still would be to bridge them and drive a sub...

It gives you increased flexibility so I quite like 4 channel amps.

Cheers Nick,

I've ordered the 4-channel one, it's not that more expensive and (as you say) gives me the flexibility.
