I have a pair of Power Acoustik FUBR-10. 600w rms 1800 peak dual 2 ohm V/C. I'm only using 1 now becouse I don't have room for two in my truck. (made my own sub tube ported and tuned to 39hz) I need some suggestions for a good 1 ohm stable amp to power just 1 of the subs. Money is an object so need to keep it in the $400.00 to $500.00 range.

Careful with the kicker, it's 2ohm stable. If you end up using the 2nd sub in the future and wire them into a 1ohm load, you will need a 1ohm stable amp. That JBL is a good choice though.

Just looked at JBL, not good. According to their web site the GTO1201.1 is 2ohm stable not 1. so it's back to the search. Thanks anyway PtP

Right, but that amp actually puts out full power at 1 and 4 ohms. Since you have dual 4 subs, you can wire them to 4 ohms and it'll be fine. Here're some 1ohm stable amps that'll suit you:

ORION HCCA-D2400 (my personal choice for you)
JBL BPX1100.1
ED nine.1 (www.edesignaudio.com)

My friend has this series amp, it will never get hot even at 1ohm.



pssst...you can even try it at 0.5ohm and get away with it, but i don't recommend it haha

I don't have access to a computer at home and my work computer has a firewall that prohibits Ebay. I'm kinda stuck ordering from mfg's or online stores. Bummer!!! But I appreciate your effort. Thanks PtP

if it's one sub, then grab a 600w rms amp at 1 ohm. Orion 600d or hcca d1200 can do the job.

my bad up there..
