better yet.. skip the head unit, and just use the empeg.. I've been using just my empeg for over a year now, and it's perfect all on it's own

you don't have to get a really big amplifier, just one that does what you want it to...

anyway.. the empeg was designed to run on it's own.. it's best used that way

If you don't need the head unit (for CD or radio) don't bother using one.

Otherwise start comparing the top models of Clarion, Alpine, Eclipse, Mcintosh, Nakamichi, Denon, etc. The top models should be completely amp-free.

Then you still have a choice of using either the empeg or the head unit as your preamp.

How about one of those dedicated satelite radio tuners?
