I just swapped out the stock speakers (front doors, two rear speakers) with Polk Audio DB651's. I am looking to pair them with a decent 4 OHM amp to give them as much power as they/I want. My only requirement is that I really want to keep the stock head unit as is. Does anyone have any suggestions? These are the two I've been looking at. Thanks in advance for your help and suggestions...

ive always had good luck with MTX amp. great bang for the buck!

 

Thanks for the input, do you have a link to the product? Is it compatible with the stock head unit? Thanks...

 

just get on their website. any amp is compatible. you just have to convert the signal from speaker level to rca with a line output converter.

 

Try Soundstream. You may have not heard of them but trust me this is the best amp I have ever owned. I had it in my last car a 99 Accord. Once I get new speakers for the TL its definitely goin in to push em


Soundstream 4 channel amp

 

And this amp will run with no issues using the stock head unit as well??

 

Sweet, thanks.

 

doesn't that amp have speaker level inputs? you may not need a LOC.

 

i bought a soundstream amp many years ago. it was a 7 channel long blue deal. it sucked. worst amp ive ever owned. and ive owned alot. i will never have another one.

same deal with sony. i will never have another sony car audio product.

 

Don't know how long ago you got yours but I got mine last year. Used it to push some Mb Quartz 6.5 speakers in the front and some Rockford Fosgate 6x9's in the back. This amp rocked for me. I was able to turn up the volume very loud with little to no distortion from the speakers. Before I had the Soundstream I was using an older model Alpine V12 series amp. Once I replaced the Alpine with the Soundstream amp my speakers sounded better than they ever had. Maybe you just had some bad luck

 

I upgraded my speakers just like what you want, I changed my front speakers to ALpine components 330 watts 110 rms

also change the rear speakers to alpine 2 way speakers 110rms each

i went with a 900 watts Amp which is perfect to move those speakers.
