avoid anything by BOSS. I implore you.
It's trash.
70 watts my a$$
RMS is about 9 to 11 watts x 4.
example, the Alpine head units with Vdrive use a 10AWG line directly from the battery to power the internal amplifiers, which are the best internal amps I've ever seen from a head unit, and with all of that, they put out 27WRMS x 4. 60W x 4 max.
Also be aware that 4V pre-outs are good, but not all amplifiers are capable of accepting 4V input so that's something to check as well.
Consider going with a better head unit.
Eclipse
Alpine
Clarion
Pioneer Premiere
any of these would serve you well, for years to come.
