Hello all hope you can help I have a 2005 Yamaha RSTD with a wide open plastics Fairing. Running a JVC KD R720 head deck and 4 Polk Audio MM 521 Speakers. Looking for a good amp I have been told either the Arc Audio 125.2 or the Bazooka CSA-4 XA MC. Can anyone please point a low experianced person in the proper direction. Thanks alot all. I am looking for loud CLEAN sound and I have very little knowledge in this field.

    The Arc will be a quality, well built amp free of noise. The Bazooka.....well not so much.

    There's actually a link between the Bazooka and Arc amps from what I understand. If you google it, you'll read where Bazooka is a Robert Zeff/Nikola Engineering product, which is the same as Arc.

    Cerwin Vega, Clarion, Elf, and probably quite a few others use the same amplifier design as Arc as well.

    If you do some research, you'll notice that the prices vary widely, but the amps appear identical inside.
