Amping my speakers
I want to get a 4 channel amp to amp my Pioneer speakers. Is it better to get a line out converter and then this amp:

Or use this amp that has speaker level inputs:

And are those good amps? I don't really want to spend a ton of money in this but I want them to be louder than they are now.

well i think im right but you will have to get someone on here to explain it better because the speaker level output thing is for sending the low notes to the subs and if you send only low notes to your speakers you will only have bass i think hopefully someone corrects me or atleast says im right lol its kind of hard to explain

I would look into this 4 chan pioneer amp GM-4300 for your speakers. In fact I'm thinking of getting one myself as Ive seen them go for as low as $100 on amazon, ebay, etc.
Also they wont over power your pioneer speakers assuming you have the same 3 way 6x8s A series that I just installed in my truck. They are rated at 50 watts rms. With more powerfull amps you could risk blowing your speakers.

I'm just guessing but i would probably think between 10-15 RMS x 4 Max. I just recently took my stock headunit out when i got my new pioneer 3 way speakers and replaced it with an Pioneer DEH-P5000UB that produces 22watts RMS x 4 and it way louder then the original stock unit and speakers ever where. the two systems wouldnt even come close.
My mirrors, door metal surfaces, and windshield shake like crazy when i crank up the sound(Seconk Skin Sound dampener now on its way) I'm very impressed with the new headunit and speakers. An amazing amount of bass for 6x8 door speakers. In fact i knocked my rear view mirror off once already lol. I haven't even bothered to install my sub yet. It almost feels unnecessary and I'm currently contemplating sending those parts back to save money.

those amps are way to powerful for those speakers. if you have the stock HU then just upgrade to a pioneer one and that will be fine. but if you wanna keep the stock look try something like http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAu...roductID=19262
