Amp

....yes, im asking about amps again! fwn

I bought a sub and amp and I must admit it sounds lovely.

Someone local to me offered me an amp for a tenner, here is a link to it:

The Amp - It's the one on the right, even though there is no picture - http://www.motor-world.co.uk/show_prod.php?keywords=spla350&prod_id=2176

The question is, will this be alright to amp my front coaxials?

My Coaxials - http://caraudiosecurity.com/shop/product/products_id/56.html

I know the amp looks sh*te but I'm not really bothered, it would just be temporary as it's only a tenner and I could easily flog it to a mate for that in a few months time.

Thanks for your time boys n girls!

Wouldn't be the greatest sound, but I don't see why you couldn't use it to drive co-ax's

Should be fine.........but I'm a bit concerned about the price?! A tenner........sure it isnt stolen property???

Hugh - why wouldn't it be the greatest sound?

Apparantly its been well used which is why there is such a low price.

I have almost 0 knowledge, so I had a look at the rms value of both, and the amp seems to be loads more than the coax's which is why I asked.

Thanks for your replies guys

your better off with more power in your amp than speakers- if you need to you can turn down the gain on the amp. will be ok.

 

[lewis]

Yeah I can - okay, nice one, thanks for the help guys

The amp won't be built to the highest standards, will have the cheapest nastiest components, will most likely be very inefficient and have a poor signal to noise ratio.

Basically you gets what you pay for. But everyone has to start somewhere. My first kit was a mix of Jetsound and Longmill, many moons ago.

The SPLX Amps are crap and blow dead easy. Avoid imo.
