chris frey New member Username: Lincoln_ls_guy Post Number: 5 Registered: Dec-05	Posted on Friday, December 23, 2005 - 04:10 GMT u get what u pay for. rule of thumb, new amp around $1/watt or more (sometimes less). used usually half that. try the Coustic 401DB. It's monoblocked and (what you need) 2 ohm stable. Plus they rarely overheat. It's only 400 watt rms, but i have one hooked up to my 2 subs (1000 rms each) and hit a 146.7 at my last DB Drag event. They're listed at almost $400, but you can usually get one for under $200

Look at some of the best amps available.. a JL 1000 watt amp can be had online for under $700 even.

What size box? What type of subs? What frequency? Where was it metered at? What did they use to measure it? You should get it metered on a termlab. I promise you, you wont be hitting even 140 dB with 400 watts RMS at the dash, legal.

bullpup Unregistered guest	Posted on Friday, December 23, 2005 - 17:13 GMT can any one answer my question?
bassman3 Silver Member Username: Dustin3 Tigard, Or U.S. Post Number: 148 Registered: Oct-05	Posted on Friday, December 23, 2005 - 20:23 GMT yes, it should be at least a 2400 rms amp, depending on the subs
bullpup Unregistered guest	Posted on Friday, December 23, 2005 - 20:44 GMT what if i had a 300 rms amp
bassman3 Silver Member Username: Dustin3 Tigard, Or U.S. Post Number: 149 Registered: Oct-05	Posted on Friday, December 23, 2005 - 22:09 GMT then u would need 8 of those amps. lol. if u had a 300 rms amp and that is the bridged power you wouldnt be able to even run 1 of those subs because u will be underpowering them so much.
