If money is an issue, look into hifonics amps. http://cgi.ebay.com/HIFONICS-BXI1606D-1600-WATT-SUPER-D-CLASS-MONOBLOCK-AMP_W0QQ itemZ150141341661QQihZ005QQcategoryZ64570QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem |

CVRs are rated for 500w rms i think, and you'd be setting them up on double that which if you dont know what you're doing, you would be setting yourself up for having a pair of blown subwoofers |

Gold Member Username: Its_bacon12Hfl, Ny Usa Post Number: 1233 Registered: Dec-03 | oh and they dont NEED 750w rms. it all depends on the box you have. the bigger the box, the less power required to push the sub to its mechanical limits. power ratings are generally thermal. but they are guidelines mostly. you dont NEED to be exact and you dont NEED a mono amp at 1 ohm. just be careful with your gains. dont use them as a volume control PLEASE just curious, what amp did you have the specs for? that 2 channel in orig post |

Gold Member Username: Its_bacon12Hfl, Ny Usa Post Number: 1240 Registered: Dec-03 | yeah i saw after that. but my points still hold true. they dont need exactly rated power to reach mechanical limits nor does overpowering them mean they will blow. like i said, it all depends on the box you have them in |

Silver Member Username: Loc_outSanta Ana, Ca Resonant Eng... Post Number: 891 Registered: Feb-05 | Your point does stand if you knew the size of box he intends of using. Without that info you're under powering them. We should find out what type of box? |

Bronze Member Username: Doconpoint1Park Forest, IL Post Number: 12 Registered: Jun-07 | It was a lanzar amp. And i figured since i've seen a lot of people say that generally budget amps don't put out what they say, that the 2 x 1000 rms would be a lil closer to the 750 if not lower. And yeah i've looked at many forums and in doing so i def know not to use the gain as a volume knob. Also it's a ported box. I can't remember the volume, but i think it was like a lil over 4 or so. |

Bronze Member Username: Doconpoint1Park Forest, IL Post Number: 14 Registered: Jun-07 | well the debate isn't if i think they suck or not. i never said they were good, and i know how most feel about them. but if you fill like paying for me an amp of your choosing feel free. But thanks to those who've been constructive in trying to help me. |
