Yea, if you're only gonna use 2 speakers, then look for a lower power amp, 2 channel somewhere inbetween 50-75 wrms. If you're lookin for deals, check out ebay.

thanx, im using only two speakers and the money is tight, is there a chance i could get 2 way/stereo amp with pretty high wattage at reasonable cost, lets say no more than $100.

Adding an amp to your speakers will make them sound better and make them louder at the same time.
An amp about 50x4 or even 75x4 in your case should make them sound a lot better than they do now.
Just check out the G,B &A list in the faq section for a listing of good amps.

hi
i have car stereo which has specification as follows;Alpine 9847 with 50*4 watts(18rms) running in to 4 ohm, 260watt/80rms speakers, speakers are connected directly to the HU without an amp.
Is that suffiicient?
I figured with this system i'm getting 9 watt per speaker with 4ohm, there's no change in decebels since Im using 4 ohm, Am I correct(correct me if i'm wrong) ?
i'm looking forward to buy an amp, what would an amp do?, would it increase the spl or sq or both?
