They are just sitting at my house because i dont know what amplifier to get. I was thinking either a Hifonics, or Rockford Fosgate? I really wanna install the subs but i want to be sure i am getting the right amp. PLEASE HELP |

Silver Member Username: SkdooleyRoanoke, VA Usa Post Number: 187 Registered: Oct-09 | It says dual 4 ohm in the title of the post. Fosgate is a good, solid amp. I wouldn't recommend Hifonics. Another good amp to look into is an AQ1200D at audioque.com . I'd recommend having a box built for the subs if you don't already have one. The enclosure is very important. If you happen to get sealed, as long as the prefab matches the recommended specs for the woofers, you should be ok. Having one built per your specifications tho better meets your needs and expectations of your subs. When you do get your amp, be sure to set your gain correctly. This is very important. |

New member Username: TkzoneClearwater, Florida USA Post Number: 8 Registered: Jan-10 | Need to correct myself that would be a kenwood kac 9104 model have personally seen one in action on two cvr 12 in a spl large ported enclosure and you could not breathe or swallow at 10db on the boost bro. Also the bamf 2000 or 4000d by power acoustik are sick i have the 2000 and i cant imagine how loud the 4 is, much less the 5500/1d which can push 4 15s all day. This coming from an oskool Ppi junkie who put my pcx280 cheater on the shelf for one of these |
