2 10" MTX subs(400w rms) dual 4 ohms-2 12" MTX subs(400w rms) dual 4 ohms- 1 15" MTX Thunder 9500(1000w rms) dual 4 ohms...i was shopping around for a nice set up n found these nice subs, in my opinion, but couldnt find a good bridgeable 1000w rms amp to run them(1 amp per pair, 500w a peice, except for the 15" which would have its own amp) so what do u guys think would be the best amp(price range- $500-$600 a peice) Thanx

running all 3 subs together wont sound good/balanced

i would use the 15" ONLY - sell the 2 10s & with the $$$ buy a good amp to power that 15" ...........

:D. Seeing that he was going to spend like 200 or so for two caps, mind as well get a HO alt. for a little extra and well worth the money. Also I don't usually post in here, but the subwoofer section is down :-(.

I saw a 200amp alt would be fine, would also give you a lot of amps at idle which is a really good thing.
