Gold Member Username: Th3pwn3rChicago, Illinois U.S.A Post Number: 1016 Registered: Jul-06 | You can use that amp but you won't be getting much power for that sub.Make sure you wire in series because I don't think that amp is 1 ohm stable. |

Silver Member Username: Sinful_systems70Post Number: 378 Registered: Nov-06 | Yes 4 ohms because I don't think that amp is stable any lower than 4 ohms when bridged, and I hope you plan to run it bridged because even then you will be underpoweing that sub. JMO |

Gold Member Username: JohnfiacIL Afghanistan,... Post Number: 1394 Registered: Mar-06 | Its a mono amp, no bridging involved LMAO ebay specs are so predictable It does 800@4 ohm and 1600@2ohm, not 1 ohm stable. If you wanted more power outta the amp you ordered the wrong VC config for the sub... DVC4ohm woulda been a better choice. |
Silver Member Username: Loc_outSanta Ana, Ca Resonant Eng... Post Number: 669 Registered: Feb-05 | Nice time to start looking for a new amp. Will that sub be moving at 800Watts? Can you guys name accouple of amps that are 1ohm stable. Budget is 300ish the lower the better. |

Platinum Member Username: Rovin1 12 Atomic ... Post Number: 10710 Registered: Jul-05 | around that budget u have to go ebay & look @ some Hifonics Brutus amps ...... |
Silver Member Username: Loc_outSanta Ana, Ca Resonant Eng... Post Number: 670 Registered: Feb-05 | Chad i believe you had an XXX right? If i only give it 1200 would i still be underpoweing it? Would i hear a big difference 800@4ohm then 1200@1ohm? |
Silver Member Username: Adam_s15 TC9 Hybrid, RE MT Softparts Post Number: 649 Registered: Aug-04 | 1200 would get it moving pretty nice. There would be a difference from 800 to 1200. but if those numbers come from hifonics they are a little over rated so expect to get 1000-1100 @1 ohm. |
Silver Member Username: Loc_outSanta Ana, Ca Resonant Eng... Post Number: 672 Registered: Feb-05 | What other kind of amp should i look for if bump my budget to 400ish? |
Platinum Member Username: Rovin1 12 Atomic ... Post Number: 10715 Registered: Jul-05 | is that a 2oo5 or 2006 model XXX ? either way IMO i'd use more than 1200wrms , @ least 1500wrms i would get , u could get get by with a 2000 Hif brutus if $$$ is tight .... |
Silver Member Username: Loc_outSanta Ana, Ca Resonant Eng... Post Number: 678 Registered: Feb-05 | Its a 2005XXX. If the audiobahn can move that sub i am going to save and get a good amp. |
Silver Member Username: Loc_outSanta Ana, Ca Resonant Eng... Post Number: 680 Registered: Feb-05 | So when i got home yesterday i wired the XXX to 4ohm. I used the audiobahn amp damn that sounded so clean and it was louder then my w6. Can't wait to buy a bigger amp. } |
