The amp you get needs to be 2ohm stable. That JBL is probably your best bet. |
Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Southeast PA Post Number: 2215 Registered: Jul-06 | Definitely do not get an audiobahn or MA audio. Hifonics are ok, and that JBL would be good. |
Gold Member Username: OlegSanta Monica, CA USA Post Number: 1320 Registered: Nov-04 | Ok we're not starting another "audiobahn" thread, but they're absolutely NOT a terrible brand and I'd never say "definitely do not get." I've had my amp for 4 years and it's awesome. Isaac has personally tested their intake series amp and said it's a great deal for the money...the amp puts out the power and is decent quality. Anyway, go with that JBL b/c the audiobahn one's not the right match for the setup. |

Gold Member Username: OlegSanta Monica, CA USA Post Number: 1327 Registered: Nov-04 | No real need to get that used one when the newer models are pretty fairly priced as is. |
Gold Member Username: JohnfiacA-ToWn, 152-153db Da... My wangers b... Post Number: 2685 Registered: Mar-06 | I only suggest it because it is also 1 ohm stable, non like the new ones that arent(future upgrades are easier) it does like 1300-1400rms at 1 and 2 ohm... |
Gold Member Username: OlegSanta Monica, CA USA Post Number: 1330 Registered: Nov-04 | I don't know about that amp being 1ohm stable... http://manuals.harman.com/JBL/CAR/Owner%27s%20Manual/bp_om.pdf There are new JBL models that are 2ohm stable and there're others that are 1ohm stable (i.e.: bpx1100.1 and bpx2200.1). |

Gold Member Username: OlegSanta Monica, CA USA Post Number: 1333 Registered: Nov-04 | Where does it say this? |
Gold Member Username: JohnfiacA-ToWn, 152-153db Da... My wangers b... Post Number: 2687 Registered: Mar-06 | look in the pdf you linked above.... it says lowest stable load 1 ohm* (* = gets the same power as 2ohm) look at the specs for the list of amps... looks like all the BP (mono blocks)series are 1ohm stable, 2 ohm optimized |
