Fried!! My beloved hand-me-down Rockford Fosgate 551x 4 channel amp has finally died on me. I bought it from Mike (Rider69) back in October of '04, she's served me fine in 2 installs, and thanks to the tremendous heat and my aggressive listening/tuning habits, she's gone for all I know. As far as quality, I would lend to believe that the quality was just perfect for my listening habits, and at 70 watts RMS at 4 ohms, I couldn't really complain for the deal I got. I assume she's shot as she's been intermittenly cutting in and out over the past 2 weeks. And finally, she's not lighting up at all. So the story goes, I need a 4 channel amp. I didn't find much in the way of quality amps on E-bay for the quality I'm searching for, aside for an Eclipse EA3422 amp and a Soundstream XStream XTA 720.4. I've heard that Soundstream has been lagging in quality the past few years, however, given that I'm not looking to spend more than $200 shipped, finding a new amp that fits my needs is very tough.
Any suggestions?
