[car audio] Amp Questions..

So i've decided to just go a lil bit higher end then what i was expecting to go.. and now i've kinda sorta rounded it down to what i'm looking at.

Looking for a mono and a 4 channel amp. The single channel is going to power a Solobaric 12" L5 sub, and the 4 channel is going to power the normal speakers (which will get updated soon). So i'm thinking for the single channel, something at least 500watts.. and for the 4 channel, something with at least 100watts to each channel.

now onto my question. Which brand? i'm looking to spend at the most $350 for each amp.

Hifonics?
Audiobahn?
Rockford Fosgate? (i don't think i can actually afford this)
Alphasonik? (they are cousins to Audiobahn.. same company owns both)
something else? (recommend me a brand)

Of course Audiobahn is everyone's favorite darling right now.. but should i be considering HiFonics? I've also heard really good things about Alphasonik so i might give them a try unless someone convinces me otherwise. At least their amps look DAMN sexy.

or should i just go the safe route and get Fosgates even though their ugly as hell. I've considered going Lanzar but somehow that brand gives me the impression of Swap Meet stuff. I can't really afford the good stuff like Alpine or JL or whatever.. so that's out of the question.
 
I remember reading bad things about Audiobahn in some of the car stereo forums I used to frequent. And not many people like Rockford Fosgate these days.
 
Dear God dont get Audiobahn.

US Acoustics and JBL are good budget amps. Crossfire would work well also.
Is that 350 per amp or total? I assume per...
At that range you could also *almost* get into JL Audio. Good amps, although your mono would probably be a touch above 400 (for the 500.1, which may be a bit small)
Also, Phoenix Gold Tantrum line would be along that price as well, also good amps.
 
Hell, completely forgot Avoinixxx

Good amps, alot of happy users with those. Probabl Avoinixx or JBL for the buget, JL or PG if you wanna drop a bit more then what you have budgeted (Mainly more for the mono amps, the 4 ways would be in line)
