Title: Please Move If Incorrect...
Post by: ToRo on 28 April 2008, 21:53
I'm after some Phoenix Gold Octane R subwoofers and amplifiers, PG have been bought out by Rodin and have since stopped selling them.

So I was wondering if anyone knew as to where I can get any Phoenix Gold products now as Google, as magnificent it is, cannot find any!

Thanks in advance!

If you're looking at running a sub the second one will be better as it's a mono amp designed for the job,personally I always run Mono Block amps for subs rather than a bridged stereo amp.

What about a sub and components? Would I need 2?

2 amps would be a better option to be honest,a similar quality amp for the front components would give a good quality signal. I see a lot of people use 4 channel amps to run Sub and Components which works but being an old Fart I still believe separate amps built for the job will always be better.
