Bronze Member Username: FirlefanzPost Number: 57 Registered: Jul-05 | @amp don't want to destroy your thoughts, but: 1 I would prefer hifonics over kenwood (kenwood is a No No as amp) 2 sure you need 1 kW RMS???? Ever heard 1kW?? 3 for 300 there is really no 1kW to buy! 4 you might find some digital amps with that output within in your bugdet no control and overrated 5 What's the rest of the system setup? 6 what kind of music and what target (blast the neighbours or decent and good sounding?) |

Bronze Member Username: JronPost Number: 63 Registered: Jul-05 | yeah the amp is supposed to be a really good amp for the price. It is stable to 1 ohm, for 299, you can probably find it cheaper than this over the internet vs. crutchfield. check crutchfields ratings for this they are all positive ratings, plus it is an mb quart amp so the quality is there. fits your budget, and it should pound those 12's nicely. |
