New member Username: YamtasticPost Number: 1 Registered: Aug-11 | I need help finding an amp to power my two pioneer premier 10 inch ts-w3004spl subwoofers. I was using power acustik 2200w amp but I had a bad ground and it blew. Looking for suggestions for a decently priced amp. Thank you |

If you really have the 10" version, then the model would be TS-W2504SPL. If you truely have the TS-W2504SPL; these Subwoofers handle 600 Watts RMS each. The best amplifier I could suggest would be the Audioque AQ1200D: http://www.audioque.com/AQ1200D-Amplifier_p_30.html If you actually have the TS-W3004SPL; these Subwoofers can handle 750 Watts RMS each. The best Amplifier I could suggest would be the Hifonics Brutus BRZ1700.1D (if you are looking to save money): http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_23547_Hifonics-Brutus-BRZ1700.1D.html If you have some money to spend, then the next cheapest and best option (IMO) would be to purchase 2 Audioque AQ750 Amplifiers, one per Subwoofer: http://www.audioque.com/AQ750-Amplifier_p_46.html |

Bronze Member Username: Dcollister440Post Number: 26 Registered: Jun-11 | just got a question joe....how come you always suggest audioque or hifonics? are they really quality amps for the price? I never hear you suggest a rockford or jl, just curious |

Gold Member Username: KaerfplSpencerport, NY USA Post Number: 1277 Registered: Jun-06 | Hifonics? lol. I would never resort to suggesting Hifonics unless I was building a very VERY low budget system. When looking into Amplifiers, the main thing im looking for is Price, Reliability and Accurate Specs. Audioque Amplifiers are cheaper, and are true to their name (from my own personal experience anyway). Sure, there are other great Amplifier Brands out there like Kicker, Rockford Fosgate, Zapco, Sundown Audio and much more, but because people now-a-days arn't looking to dump hundreds of dollars into a Car Audio system, Audioque is the way to go. |

Gold Member Username: KaerfplSpencerport, NY USA Post Number: 1286 Registered: Jun-06 | Only reason I suggested it this time around was because I am not sure what Jakes budget is. Figured i'd throw out the best deal for his buck if Jake is trying to save money. Plus, i've done some research into the Brutus series of Hifonics. There are actually a little more true to their specs, but are still slightly overrated. Still, I would never purchase a Hifonics amplifier myself but, they are good for an entry level system, or just anyone just getting into Car Audio and doesn't have much of a budget. The amplifiers im personally using is the Audioque AQ1200D & AQ4. |
