Howdy, Beetle Friends. Here's the skinny: I have an '06 Beetle (hardtop) with aftermarket Pioneer head unit (DEH-X6500BT) and Pioneer three-ways in both the door positions and backseat positions (Can't find/remember Model #'s). Sounded great for a long time. Monsoon amp finally died and I want to throw in an aftermarket amp. I'm no basshead, but I may want to toss in a sub in the future for some bottom. Anyway, I'm getting 4 different installers who all tell me 4 different things about how "massive a job this is going to be" - "You need an 8 channel amp to run the audio correctly, This could take a week, The extra parts needed are going to cost my first born," all this sort of stuff. I already purchased a nice Pioneer 4 channel and now I'm all turned around by the avalanche of opinions and differing info. QUESTION: Can someone tell me exactly what the specs are that I need to fulfill when purchasing an aftermarket amp for an '06 Beetle with 10 speaker Monsoon configuration? I thank you kindly in advance!

Randi,
Thanks for this. I'm still trying to sort out whether or not I have the right amp. I want it to be at least equal to the current (and now totally dead) Monsoon amp in power and performance. I'll keep snooping for advice.
