amp: need ideas for a 300w rms@4ohm amp(100.00-150.00)

box: ill make it! just give me ideas on cubic ft and tuning frequency.(he likes rap and rock)

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

PHOENIX GOLD OCTANE R4.0:2

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.

You can go eazy w/ 1.75 sealed or 1.5 sealed w/ 1.5lbs of polyfil.

BTW, for anyone who wants to know. 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.
