Looking for recommendations for a good 5 channel amp to power 4 polk db651 and a 10" sub while also being good on the battery. It is going to be mounted under the console of a pontoon boat so I don't think I really need a marine rated one. It would be nice if it ran cool. Thanks

Re: 5 channel amp recommendation

I'll throw in my 2 cents I guess, I picked up a Kenwood XR-5S (80W x 4, 350w x 1), Class D amp, built in fan. I also really liked the Alpine PDX amps. Check em out. The Kenwood can be had a bit cheaper than the Alpine, both really nice amps.
I'm using the XR-5S to drive 4x - RF 6.5" speakers and an RF 10" sub.

Alpine or Clarion. I have a 4 channel Clarion hooked up to one sub and 2 tower speakers. I also have a clarion head unit that pumps 4 kicker 6.5 inch speakers. After the 2nd battery, it all cost me about 2000. Well worth it.

The 5 channel alpine marine grade amp will cost you about 4-5 hundred.
