So I think I am missing something super funamental: What is the process that one goes through to figure out which amp is the right one for their IB?
I am debating going with 2 Fi IB 18's or 4 AE 15's. I understand the physical tradeoffs, manifold, wiring, etc. etc. etc....but am having a devil of a time trying to decide which amp is right.
1. We don't listen to anything super loud, but like the shake in low bass
2. 50% HT, 25% Wii, 15% TV/Sports, 10% music
3. The only "feature" I want is "auto on"
How do I go about figuring out how many watts I want / need so I can determine which drivers to get, or am I thinking about this all wrong?
