High wattage 1 ohm budget amp


Black F1

Recommended Posts

I have 2 12 inch alpine type rs. Dual 4 ohm voice coil and currently theyrw hooked up to my kenwood kac9006d 2 channel amp. The subs are wired indipendantly of eachother from the amp so the amps max 1k watts at 2 ohm is only sending 500 to each sub. I honestly think my system was just as loud when i had the full 1k going to only 1 sub. So im looking for a 2k+ watt amp that is stable at 1 ohm for around $300. Im only going to run the amp at about 1800 watts so 2000 or larger is fine. Ive been looking at the hifonics brx3016.1d amp.. is this any good? Or should i look at others? Im also upgrading my stock alternator to one around 250-300 amps after i buy the new amplifier so power shouldnt be too big of an issue.. any suggestions?

If that is the case, that is a 1 channel amp not 2. It's also rated the same at 1ohm as it is 2ohm and it probably only puts out 900 at best.

That being said. Pick up anything but hifonics, boss, dual, pioneer, powerbass, audiopipe.

Just grab a sundown, or a soundqubed rated at 2k spend a little cash.

The kenwood is weird. It says its a mono amp but has two speaker channels

No, it has two connections for ease of hookup, they are wired together internally. Its just one channel

The soundcubed is the same way.

I wouldn't waste my money on a hifonics amp.

I've said this before, if a company says one thing a delivers less, why give them your money?

Lazar opti 2k is $279 on amazon.

You could probably find something better if you search around for something used in good condition.

That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

If you are able to squeeze your budget a little more for the SoundQubed amp, i'd actually suggest this one instead:

They are under rated amplifiers, it's basically a 2200w board for less money.

I know everyone bashes on Audiopipe around here but their amps seem to put out pretty close to rated. They may not be the best out there. However, for someone on a budget but also wanting to get some more power, they're not a bad choice. You can utilize the Sonicelectronix offer form on here and hopefully get one even cheaper than listed on the website. On top of all of that, if you go through Sonic, you can also opt in for a 3 year extended warranty for only like $23.

Just a 2200 watt soundqubed for $380. How important is a new alternator? Im going to get one eventually regardless but will i have to run less power to the amp till i get one? I heard underpowering an amp will cause clipping and kill the subs and amp both?
