New member Username: AtownmackAtlanta, Ga Post Number: 6 Registered: Jul-11 | I'm running a dual 4 ohm type r 12" sub on an alpine mrp m500 amp. I have a second type r just sitting at the house because, my amp cant fully push both of them. is getting a second alpine 500W amp, just as much strain on my electrical system as having one 1000W amp? Also what are some good amps to push these dual 4 subs? |

If your alternator is rated 90A or more you can run either configuration without mods IF your electrical system is in good shape. |
