Unhappy need help in getting right amplifier

Hi !
i came to this wonderful site while surfing on the net. i didn't knew this type of site existed for indian cars.
coming to my problem, i have bought Indigo lx and installed a
kenwood vcd player


7" screen


in dash board i have a pair of sony 4 " driving them from HU

Amp ( taken out from my old M800)

sony 222 35 w X 2 Rms

V12 85 X 4 w @ 4 ohm Rms
170 X 2 w @ 4 ohm (bridged) Rms

sub
one old pioneer sub taken from M800 160 w Rms in the boot powered from 2 ch of V12

i dont have any speakers in rear yet.
The other 2 ch of V12 & 2 ch of sony 222 are not driving nothing.

i am now planning to add 2 pioneer dvc or svc ( 400 w Rms each)
for the amp i searched the market in gurgaon sec 14 and only branded amp i saw was sony 504z in that also first 2 ch cannot be run in bridged mode.
i went to sony world , they have a D class amp which can produce
500 w Rms @ 2 ohm but the price was Rs.11990 . i told him that i will buy 2 amps & asked for discount but he refused.
then i saw an 4 ch amp named GLIDER . it has 2 X 30 A fuse , 225 W X 2 rms @ 4 ohm (bridged) for around Rs 3800. I am now thinking of buying 2 GLIDER amps & 2 pioneer DVC. Each amp will drive one DVC in bridged mode.

but i want to go for a branded D class amp bcause they are more efficient then A/B class
So can any one can suggest a mono amp atleast 1000 W Rms nearby gurgaon,faridabad or delhi with price mentioned
i have budget of Rs 15000 ~ 18000 (max) for amplifier

1000W @ 20k? I doubt unless its gonna be a grey one.
Check out JBL GTO 601.1. I am sure it can rock in your car even with 2 15inch subs! OR even the Sony would do a great job.


OT! a VCD, a sub which can take 1000W and you have a 4inch thingy at frnt? Hello??? Get a compo!

one word or advice dont go for glider it is fake chinese amp.....
go for 601.1 or u can use a pioneer 510D and wire two SVC pioneer 306c subs to it this can also fit in ur budget......

in the front u can must use a componet kit JBL 607 6.5 inch will do the job quite nicely.......

Stay away from V12 (Silver/Black) Alpine amps. These are chinese made stuff, if u wire up the four channels to speakers u get a loud wine. Its best to choose a branded amp. Sony's Mono amp is popular u could get it for 10K. Or try this one if u want a cheap branded amp JVC-KS-AX3500 u shud get it for 4K.

thanx! aza,honda,lbm,souljah for replying.

ok now i got it. i will wait for one month & will increase my budget upto Rs 28000 for amps

what will JBL GTO 601.1 , JBL GTO 1201.1, pioneer amp or sony amp will cost around and also jbl subs with bill & without bill (grey) .please mention power(Rms) of the amp & sub. i need 1X 1000w Rms or 2X 500w rms D class amp.

btw i have uploaded video of my friend's pioneer dvc with glider amp , you see , hear & decide whether the amp is clipping or not. i have measured the output voltage of the amp in bridged mode , it was around 27 V .each coil of dvc was recieving 27 volts.

i have started having doubts about pioneer. In the market pioneer's SVC are rated at 400Watts RMS. I doubt if its real 400w rms.

You see i have a pair of JBL GT4-15 15" which are rated at 250Watts RMS. It hard for me to believe that pioneer is better than JBL. How come pioneer is selling 400Watts RMS at 3.5 k.?

Kindly clarify my doubt

Can someone tell me what difference an Amp makes. I mean if they both supply the same amount of power to your speakers, why does one go in for more expensive amps. I can understand speakers where quality and design change the sound. But Amps?
