I personally love panasonics, I can't beleive it's 60x4 RMS! I've seen external amps that put out less than that, that's so insane

My last Alpine pushed 60x4 until some dip**** jacked it out of my car. I'm about to buy the same Panasonic HU except the one I'm getting is the C8100U.

Just FYI, I'd check eBay for MUCH better prices!

with its industry-leading 60 watt RMS x 4 internal amplifier
I checked a few more pages just to make sure, and it seems like it's the loudest deck right now, so maybe you should get your points straight

you have to wonder how good an amp of that power would be, if it was still small enough to be in a deck, ... or something

I can't bring myself to dropping that sort of cash again considering my last purchase was jacked out of my car. I think im sticking with the C8100U for now...
