Platinum Member Username: GlasswolfPost Number: 14118 Registered: Dec-03 | for a pair of type R subs, look at www.audioque.com see the AQ1200D amplfiier. $249 shipped. It'll put out 1200WRMS into a 1 ohm load. |

|
New member Username: Boarder18Post Number: 4 Registered: Nov-10 | alright thanks. by the way the subs are 4ohms and 500 Rms and 1000 peak. so would that amp work? |
|
Silver Member Username: JbpittPittsburgh, Pa. Usa Post Number: 905 Registered: Jul-09 | Yep,that amp is perfect. Wire them up at 1ohm. http://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/woofer_configurations.asp?Q=2&I=42 an your good to go. |

Silver Member Username: Nevertoomuchbass2 Fi Q 12s, Mmats 3000.1 Post Number: 117 Registered: Aug-10 | you wanna avoid multi channel amps with subs. 2 channels tops but if you can you want a monoblock. just makes things much simpler |
|
New member Username: Boarder18Post Number: 8 Registered: Nov-10 | alrighty thanks. does anyone know if SoundStorm amps are good amps??? |
|
Silver Member Username: Nevertoomuchbass2 Fi Q 12s, Mmats 3000.1 Post Number: 120 Registered: Aug-10 | soundstorm, boss, pyle, pyramid, and dual are all in the crap category. theyre uber cheap, but you get what you pay for there. i would never reccomend any of that unless you just want the cheapest bass you can find |
|
New member Username: Boarder18Post Number: 10 Registered: Nov-10 | alright. could this amp push 2 12 4ohms Alpine type Rs.. (Kenwood KAC-8104D) |
|
Silver Member Username: Nevertoomuchbass2 Fi Q 12s, Mmats 3000.1 Post Number: 121 Registered: Aug-10 | okay man first off, what are you looking to get out of this system? do you want something that sounds clean, or just loud? kenwood is another budget company but maybe a notch above those other brands |
|
Bronze Member Username: Boarder18Post Number: 11 Registered: Nov-10 | well i need a new amp anyways but i dont have alot of money. but i want something loud. |
|
Silver Member Username: Nevertoomuchbass2 Fi Q 12s, Mmats 3000.1 Post Number: 122 Registered: Aug-10 | whats your budget? |
|
Bronze Member Username: Boarder18Post Number: 12 Registered: Nov-10 | 180. but if its a nice amp and will last. i could go to 250.00 |
|
Silver Member Username: Nevertoomuchbass2 Fi Q 12s, Mmats 3000.1 Post Number: 123 Registered: Aug-10 | how many watts rms are your subs rated? are they DVC or SVC? and how many ohms are they |
|
Bronze Member Username: Boarder18Post Number: 13 Registered: Nov-10 | they are DVC 4ohms 500 watts RMS 1500 peak. |
|
Silver Member Username: Nevertoomuchbass2 Fi Q 12s, Mmats 3000.1 Post Number: 124 Registered: Aug-10 | so is that dual 4 or dual 2? |
|
Silver Member Username: Nevertoomuchbass2 Fi Q 12s, Mmats 3000.1 Post Number: 125 Registered: Aug-10 | i sure hope its dual 2 cuz dual 4 will make it quite a bit more difficult to find an amp that would fit |
|
Platinum Member Username: GlasswolfPost Number: 14133 Registered: Dec-03 | My understanding is, he has a pair of dual 4 ohm coil type R subs. As I said already, the AQ1200D is your best solution with your budget. That would be 600WRMS per sub with coils and subs in parallel. |

Silver Member Username: Nevertoomuchbass2 Fi Q 12s, Mmats 3000.1 Post Number: 128 Registered: Aug-10 | sorry glasswolf i had been working on this post for a little while and didnt see you had replied too. If the subs are indeed dual for ohms, then hes right, that aq1200d will be excellent |
|
Platinum Member Username: GlasswolfPost Number: 14142 Registered: Dec-03 | dual 4 ohm subs, ywah 1 ohm load, aq1200d. if he has dual 2 ohm, he'll want to wire to a 2 ohm load. Then he has several options, including maybe the Alpine MRD1000 (if I remembered that right) |
|
Silver Member Username: Nevertoomuchbass2 Fi Q 12s, Mmats 3000.1 Post Number: 134 Registered: Aug-10 | yeah the first 2 choiced i had for a dual 2 setup were the kicker zx1000.1, and the alpine mrp-m1000. |
|
Platinum Member Username: GlasswolfPost Number: 14144 Registered: Dec-03 | oh, good call on the kicker amp. good stuff there too. |
