I still have a Genesis SM60 car amplifier which offers 2 channels of 30w
each.  Also got an SM100 which offers (you guessed it) 50w per channel.

In reality, they were conservatively rated, and the SM60 would output
nearer
45w per channel and the SM100 nearer 75w (4 ohm loads).

Bridge the channels (2 ohm), and the things would drive crazy loads.  Only
problem is that for say 150w RMS you need at least a 300w supply.  300w @
12v = 25A.

Lent the SM100 to my brother-in-law to drive his 15" (or might be
18")
homemade sub in briged mode - provided he could build a power supply meaty
enough!!!
