well if you could provide some info like how many watts you need and what you will be pushing with it then that would help us decide what you need.

ok thats better. How big do you want your next system? Here is one that you could use but DO NOT bridge it cause you will blow that one sub. This one will give you room to add another sub and you would 440 out of it.

wow, that looks just about perfect, thanks.

One question though, would this amp allow me to just hook speaker wire to it sence it will not be going threw a head unit?

You got to run RCA cables from the head unit. are the amp will not work. then you hook up your speaker wires after you have your power,remote,and ground wire hooked up

NO amp works like that man. you got to have A piece that goes on the back of your radio and then you can hook up the RCA cables. You can get one at radio shack for about 20 bucks are so I forgot what that piece is called . just tell them what you want to do and they will get you that part. But like I said NO amp hooks up like that man if it was that easy no one would change their head units.

Cory I take it you don't know much about car audio? You should just go to a local audio shop and get them to take care of it for you. Cause you don't want to buy a new amp and blow it up the same day. Just get a professional to install that set up for you.
