I have 2008 models of 6.5 and 6x9 Memphis MS class speakers I just purchased this past week. I've heard good things about these so I decided to pick some up and try them out.
Here's where I need the help. I have three amps I own to run them but I'm not sure which one to go with

I have a JL 300/4, An Alpine MRP-F240, and a Pioneer Premier 6100-F, all three amp's are great, just having a hard time deciding on which one to use.

Thanks Andrew

I was thinking JL myself, but I dont want to over power these speakers and risk blowing them, they were fairly pricey

Use the JL. Set the gains right and you shouldn't have a problem.

Plus you should have the great warranty from Memphis even if the worst happens......
