newbiedave Unregistered guest | I am a newbie and was wondering if anyone can help me pick out an amp for 2 of my Alpine Type R 12 inch subs. These are 300 peak rms each. Any suggestions? Thank you |

newbiedave Unregistered guest | It has dual 4ohm coils.. and my budget is around 500, but i also want it to not be big enough where i have to worry about blowing the subs. Thanks |

Post Number: 415 Registered: Jul-05 | Wait a second , now rereading your email , u said your subs are '300 peak rms each' - i checked for type Rs b4 i rec in above post & type Rs are rated @ 500wrms . U sure of what u got or is it type S (is rated @ 300wrms) that u have ? Is this is the type R u have ???? http://sonicelectronix.com/item_4281.html |
