Default i'm going to upgrade the speakers on my a4 with mb quart all around, but have an amp question...

1) if i do this, what kind of amp should i get? don't really understand the whole 2/3/4 channel thingy. how many channels should i get?

2) i plan on doing a carputer, too eventually. do i still need an amp to run my speakers? or, will that be done through the carputer box?

anything else would help tons. thanks.

Default One channel per speaker is what u'd probably like best.

The 2/3/4 thing pertains to a 4 channel amp. Most 4 channel amps can run two channels bridged into one for more power. So you can run 2 channels normally, and the other two in bridged mode to yeild a total of 3 channels. Or you can run both pairs of channels in bridged mode, thereby yeilding a total of 2 channels. Hence the 2/3/4 nomenclature. Hope this helps!

Default yeah, that helps... i guess, i'd prolly get 4 channel then, but, next ?...

if i put a carputer in my car, will i still need the amp? how would i connect the carputer up to run with the speakers?

i'm very newb, been lookin at different sites, but still no help as i get confused easily.

does that make sense?
