Help me pick an AMP for my Polk Speakers
So I have the following as my speakers:
Fronts: Polk MM6501 100watts RMS /200watts Peak
Rears: Polk MM651 100watts RMS /200watts Peak
I've been looking for an amp to power these speakers since they sound pretty bad through my stock headunit and came down to these 2 options:
1. Pioneer GM-6400F / Pioneer GM-6500F (The 6500F should just be a newer version even tho theres a huge price difference)
2. Pioneer GM-D9500F
What do you guys think?
Do you think the 9500 is that much more worth it, basically 2X the price of the 6500F...
Thanks!

Hmmm, I'd rather stick to known brands but thanks for the advice...
I did read in a lot of reviews that the pioneer D9500f amp is very small and stays cool to the touch since it has a built-in cooling fan...I really like those 2 things...
Any comparable brand name amp? Small & stays cool?

Thanks for the advice guys
I also had the same thought process as you guys before regarding other things, as far as buying better performance vs brand name, but I've given up on that, since brand really does matter more, since you get more support, better customer service etc...
Quick example, I got the iphone even tho there were much better performing phones at the time, same thing when I got the ipad, performance doesnt always equate to better overall experience and satisfaction...just some examples..
But thanks again for the advice, ill def look into those!
