I need to get an amp for my two JL 12w3v2d4's. They are DVC 4ohms....so they have to be wired at 1ohm or 4ohm(unless there is something I'm not concidering). Both subs are 300w RMS. I'm looking for a new amp that is about 600w with a price around $150.

the hifonics bx605, or the pheonix gold 400.1xeon or you can run the audiobahn 8002t either bridged or at a 2 channel stereo mode.

You can use the a8000t audiobahn, run the speakers to a 4ohm each, then down to 2ohms

Well I think I've decided on the hifonics bx605. Will that amp for sure give me 300w per sub at 1ohm? Also, is sonicelectronix.com a decent store because that is where I think I'm gonna get it from?

You do not need the full 300w to run them subs efficiently.

Orion 600D would be a good choice .....

As far as not needing 300w to run the subs efficiently, I think it would be a waste not to power them to atleast the RMS(300w) when easily those subs could take more. The orion 600d is not an option becuase of its price. Also, the hifonics bx605 is a class A/B amp. What is the difference between a class D amp and an A/B amp???

No i didn't say that ^

what i meant is with the high calibur of JL subs it would be a disgrace 2 use some other dog grade amp like pyle/sony/pyramid on them .

That Orion price above is sweet & i would jump on it if i had use 4 it cause its $300/400 normally 4 it ......

Well im just looking for 600w at 1ohm so any amp that can do that at 12v and is around $150 is good for me. Well the orion is a pretty good deal, but it is rated 600w at 1ohm at 13.8V, which my car cannot do(because it is 12v), so I will probably not be getting the 600w I want.

juliob....I need a 1ohm stable amp...so the 600d is out....and ikesound is a notoriously bad company so I don't really want to buy from them. Is the hifonics bx605 anygood because it is class A/B and I don't know if that class is good for subs?
