Amp opinion

My friend just spent a ton on one Alpine 12" Type-X Series Subwoofer ($499.99) at tweeter, and the guy that works there was telling him that it could handle 2 JL 1000/1's no problem, but he doesent have $1500-2000 for amps only about $500 anything he can pull off.

# Power Handling Capacity (Peak) : 3000W
# Power Handling Capacity (RMS) : 1000W
duel 2 ohms voice coils

Thanx

mb quart has an amp on crutchfield, for 250 1000watts@1ohm. Oh yeah your friend can get a better subwoofer if he's willing to drop that kind of money for that price. but that mb quart should drive that type x just fine.

$200, he can use a hifonics brutus 1500D and feed the sub over 1Kw of power RMS @ 1 ohm. that'd work out very well with that type X sub.
you really don't want a lot more than that or you can damage the sub.
put that type X in a sealed box for the best results.. it's Qts is too low for a ported enclosure. It won't sound that good ported.
it's designed as an SQL sub, with emphasis on the SQ part.
