Inexpensive Pioneer amp, is it a waste of money?

Like it says. I saw Best Buy's got these 4 cannel pioner amps for $160. Are they any good or will it make everything sound shitty. Definatly getting an alpine MP3 deck and Infinity Reference for the speakers.

Thanks in advance

What is the actual output of the amp? Do you plan on having front and rear speakers, or just front speakers?

35 watts/channel rms would be ok if you wanted only front speakers and bridged the amp.

50 watts/channel rms would be ok if wanted front and rear speaker.

By all means pay no attention to the peak power ratings, look only for rms wattage at 14.4 volts or less.

Keep in mind some speakers are very power hungry

any amp should be fine really as long as you are not runnng a subwoofer off of it. if you have an extra 100$ though, u can get the infinity perfect 6.1 for about 190$. best amp would probably be a 75x2. that should be plenty.
