New member Username: NeonsoundUsa Post Number: 4 Registered: Aug-04 | i have 2 12" 4 ohm alpine type R's, but i might upgrade them too. I was thinking of going with JL audio or Hifonics for the amp. I want something that is going to bang. If you have any better suggestions let me know. Thanks |

Im guessing you would be running the Hifonics down to 1 ohm? I would get a bigger Hifonics and run it at 4 ohms if you can get it still a lot cheaper than a JL. Here are some other good options: Hifonics ZX 6000 - two channel, 300wx2@2ohms Kicker 04KX550.2 - two channel, 275x2@2ohms Those are both AB amps, but its only 600w, so any alternator should run those really nicely. If you want are in dire need of a mono amp: Orion 600D 600@1ohm Hifonics BX 1500D 500@4ohms *(for the same price as the Orion!) Hifonics BX 500D 500@1ohm JBL BP600.1 600@1ohm I would go with the Hifonics 1500D at 4 ohms. It'll still be cheaper by quite a bit over then JL, unless you a)buy the Hifonics from a bricks&mortar or b)know someone who sells JL for cheap. |
