Profile amps any good?
I dont know much about car audio but i was flipping thru crutchfield and noticed the profile amps were pretty cheap and i havent really ever heard of them. I have a 10" infinity kappa sub and wanted something to power it and eventually power some components up front. I dont want to spend a lot so do you have any suggestions for an amp if this Profile one isnt good. How are the pioneer ones?

Don't buy a profile, I had a friend that bought one. They overheat and shut down a lot and don't put out as much power as they say. Pioneer is better, pheonix gold or xtant would be even better though. Getting a good amp is worth the extra money, it makes a huge difference. I have an orion xtreme on my 2 kickers and they are run into 2 ohms and I have had no problems with it. Whatever you do, don't buy a profile.

The profile amps are really not that bad, they do produce good power for not a lot of money... my friend had one powering 2 infinity kappa 12's and it went on forever and it pounded like hell! Plus they have a 2 year warranty, a very good thing! I'd say go for it... especially with crutchfield, if you find you dont like it, you have 30 days to return it.
