the amp in my uncle's car is fried. he needs an amp that does 500wrms @ 2ohm. he has 2 memphis 10 inch subs. the amp that fried is a memphis 16-MC500D.

anyone got one for sell or know someone that does, i would really appreciate it. i prefer it to be under $100.

thanks guys. that boss amp does look tempting. do you think it will still be a "watt is a watt" with that pos boss amp?

audiobahns are good priced too. i am watching the jbl for now cause it still has 5 hours left.

Call Memphis audio see how much to repair that MCD500 it might under $100 I don't know maybe a little more. In my opinion the Memphis MCD500 is better than all the amps listed above.

Look for a soundstream refference 500 on ebay:-) one of the best amps ever made. Also look into JBL bp 600.1, or PPI a600 if the impedence is 4 ohms.

^^^^^^ true... Chad you're a man who knows the business, boos wouldn't be on my wish list, well only their mk4(something like that hehe), but why don't you try looking the a8000V?? another amp would be profile (crappy but you know the deal for the price, good budget brand)

joey i emailed memphis and they responded real quick. they have a flat fee of $150 and if it requiers more work, then it could be more expensive.

as it turns out i won the auction for the jbl for $136. yay. awesome price for an excellent amp.

well my uncle gave it to one of his employee. he is going to fix it and use it.

james he is gonna use the jbl. for now i hooked up a kicker kx1200.1 in his ride at 2 ohm so its only 600wrms. when the jbl gets here, we will swap the amps.

his 2 10 inch memphis subs pound pretty good. i don't know what model it is but its pretty loud.
