i bought these 2 audiobahn 400 watt amps and i am trying to find a good amp well i think i found one but i am not sure how it will work can someone help me the amp information is:well down bottom it says 1x800 watts rms does this mean that the amp only puts out 800 watts. this questions might seem stupid but i am new at the audio thing. and also will my radio and regular speakers run off the amp or will they stay the same like they are. will i need more watt for the speakers and the head unit??sorry i am an idiot about this stuff i never really wanted to mess with to much audio till now. also one more thing will this amp suit what i need??

"but thats bull**** - its very rare to find speakers that acutally output their recommended bass. in fact i bet they probably output 200-300 rms" i hope that you are referring to Audiobahn and other cheap crap... because that is completely untrue otherwise... also stay away from Sony... its cheap also.. barely gets the job done... yes you Should stay away from Audiobahn.. their products are basically big paperweights.... for $200 you can pick up a better amp... as i said ... PLEASE REFER TO THE OTHER TOPICS. for help.. the Search option is your friend... also you are better off getting a new cd player.. Aiwa isnt all that great... if you want to keep it then that is fine.. car audio isnt cheap.. think twice buy once... no need to go cheap and the stuff you bought fail within a year or sooner.. save your money.. no need to say "im not rich" or something... you can save your money like i and the rest have... it pays to Pay for good quality products.. also his deck isnt going to put out 50x4 or whatever it claims.. cd players dont put out that much.. they do however put out around 12 - 30rms..... for better clarity and imaging.... this is just your beginning system... systems come and go, but if you do it right the first time and take the time to learn everything, you will be good to go in the future and wont have to worry about getting ripped off... its always funny to walk into a car audio store and hear someone tell me that this ???? 12" sub is the "f#cking best out" and he cant tell me why.. or what the cf of the ported boxes they have.. or if they are tuned... i do everything myself...... anyway..... thats all i have i guess... let us know what you are going to do... any question ask away!!!

Yea i was talking audiobahns and such (crap thats sold at best buy is mostly like that as well, lightning audio and such)
He isnt looking to spend **** loads of money on this system im sure he will be more than pleased with the set up i recommended him - or as i said there are many other options - a lot of people dont like sony - and whats funny is that they arent that bad - unless i got a unusually good one - i had a sony deck and a sony amp and sony xplods till it all got stolen and it sounded pretty damned good for a total of 400 dollars for it all.
