Not to thread jack but what's a good alternative to the HD900.5??? I'm looking to push Focal VR165 components and a 12" sub....

For those having a problem with HD900/5, it is possible you do have your gain too high and running th eamplifier at a clipping point.. That will give you the impression you have more olume but at a cost of distortion. Someone compared headroom to horsepower... While I agree some overpower is good I would have to say overkill is bad. If you have a 1000 RWHP car it is not as practical as an everyday driver at 500 RWHP. Question is if you can buy the 1000 HP for the same price as the 500 HP car... Well I would say the answer is in the components that was used to assemble the motor (just like an amp). Reputation of the company. Their history on rating their power levels compared to others. And biggest question is do you have the supporting good and will power to keep it off the throttle (just like the gain control) If anyone in this forum needs a JL AUDIO Component please PM me. As a forum sponsor and Vendor I will make sure you ar all happy.

If you are not running rear speakers you could get away with a 4 channel as long as it can run in 3 channel mode or a 3 channel amp.
