I love Alpine Type R's I purchased 3 12" SWR-1241D subs each of them are 300 watts rms I was wondering what amp(s) I should get at a decent price with good quality...Im really not sure how to wire this up or what kind of amp to use. |

A BP1200.1 would give him about 300 watts each at 8/3 ohm. Yeah that'll work. http://www.cardomain.com/item/JBLBP12001Z Thats a factory refurbished item but at $200 a great price regardless. -Fishy |
