Ok im looking at the ABP102T audiobahn bandbox: 2 10' subs. Powerhandling 100-600 watts RMS. 1200 max power. What kinda amplifier would i need to power it to produce good bass. On crutchfield it has the audiobahn A8000T which is 800 x 1 @ 2 ohms
would that be enough to power it?

what configuration are the subs connecected in, and what impedence will they be showing to the amplifier? I'm guessing it would be a 4 ohm load. in that case you will need something that will give out 600 watts rms

if they are single voice coil 10s each you will be at a 2 ohm bridge

I think the subs in the bandpass enclosure are probably like the mtx subs with a single 8 ohm voice coil.

But of course, we need to know specifics of the products before we can help, you can;t just expect us to know the product.

audiobahn says 4 0hm stereo hook up so id say were safe with the 2 ohm at bridge (meaning they are 4 ohm single voice coils)

Bad choice of subs IMO, those manufacturers build those bandpass boxes for pure SPL, they just don't sound good at all no matter who you buy it from.

Are you flexible on the subs? If so, the amp you mentioned is damn good for the price, but you can't use it in a 2 ohm mono load. If you had something like dual 4 ohm VC woofers, or single 2 ohm, you'd be set.
