Depends: If your goal is to only power the front and rear speakers, then I would recommend the amp that I have been running, which is the JL Audio XD400/4. Fits right into the stock BA amp location.
I cannot speak for any 5-channel amps though, but I'm sure somebody can recommend other amps.

I'm running the JLAudio 900/5 and it's awesome. And while they were going to put the new amp in the stock location I had them mount it under the deck. If I ever want to change settings it'll be a little easier. I think I have it tuned pretty good now after doing it myself. Great great amp but pretty expensive. It is a bit much for the factory speakers but you don't have to crank it up all the way. I have some really nice new speakers up front and you might want to add them later.

Storm T, so the 900/5 will fit in the stock location?

I too was going to suggest the JL 900/5 amp if you need a 5-channel. Compact, efficient, clean, and powerful!

900/5
It's only a tiny bit bigger. They said it would be no problem. They were actually set to put it there but I wanted it to show a tiny bit so I had them put it under the deck. Though you can't see it unless you're looking.
Yes, they said they had put the same amp in other Camaros. Quote:
You can get them from Brooke at a better price I think or you can get them directly from JLAudio's website. You can also find them on Ebay also for lots cheaper. I wouldn't recommend it though 'cuz of the warranty thing. |

As far as where to order or buy, I would recommend you go to your local audio shops (that are authorized dealers, of course) to see what price they are offering. Like the XD400 retails for $400, but I got it at half that price at a "local" audio shop that is JL authorized.

Thanks Storm! Yes, we do carry both on our site. The XD400 is a 4-channel and would be a great choice if you only want to add an amp for your regular speakers now, and then add a mono amp later for a sub.
