I have read other topics about amping them. i ahve 2 12 inch alpine type r's being amped currently by a PPI PCX 2125. which is 500x1. I would like to know if this is enough for them or if i can get a bigger amp i would like to that and if someone could recommend me a amp for this that would be great. If i will not blow my subs i would like to get the most power going to them that i can possibly get ps i have a alpine 9835 head unit
the amount of power u are giving them is just perfect i looked online and they are rated for 300 watts RMS how many fuses are on ur amp and how many amps are they but now if u are looking for a really loud system u have the wrong subs and amp
well im just looking to amp the subs the right way to max them out without blowing them and was wondering if i put a different amp, possibly bigger amp if it would be better and more efficent
i suggest going to ebay and search Crossfire 1000D that is a phonominal amp they are under rated for power that way you could keep the gain low and run it at 2 ohms and u should get about 330 watts for each sub. U must remember it is a mono block amp so wiring ur subs in parallel will give the power and the nice clean sound u are loking for their amps are amazing u will never have to buy another amp ever again unless u run subs that need more power i have a 2000D and i run it at 1 OHM and it is very stable
CROSSFIRE VR-1000D CLASS D SUB AMP BRAND NEW VR1000D Item number: 5745236468
i would look at the zapco 500m its only about 500 i had two alpine type r's and it was more than enough power. the amp never shut off or went into protection i hit a little under 140 db with that as well. definately worth a look
adam im running 2 12's off the alpine MRD-M1001 which is 1000 watts at 2 ohms right now im running 1 wired up to it at 500 watts at 4 ohms (waiting for my other one first oen was defective) and it makes my ears bleed keep it all alpine and get the amplifier link HU control .. nice HU choice btw its great
generally speaking most of your high grade car audio is going to cost you about a dollar a watt. amplifiers such as audison, zapco, jl audio and mcintosh are all top quality stuff. i guess it just depends on what you want...
