Anonymous | Michael, The Shivas work really well w/ just 300W. They have a thermal rating of 650w but it takes much less than that reach full excursion. However, your $100-150 amp budget makes its tough. Here are some ideas....(this will work, not what I would choose in an ideal situation) HIFONICS ZUES ZX4000 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=18796%26item%3D5720545062 %26 PHOENIX GOLD OCTANE R4.0:2 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=18796%26item%3D5719708877 %26 MTX THUNDER 342 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=39735%26item%3D5720688261 %26 I would go with no less than the MTX, but all will probably work with a single Shiva. |

The tech guy at www.acoustic-visions.com is clueless. He did say the "new" Brahmas are supposed to be flowing in the first of Oct and then the Koda 12s shortly after. Of course he may truely know nothing about that either. |
