oh yeah i forgot to mention, dont try and sell me your amps, i wont even consider it. you almost got some advice, now you don't, asshole. Edit: and having an amp to "move some air" with 2 type r 12's better have a big ass fan on it. ??? i didnt direct that to you... did i hurt your feeling with what i said to him?

i just ordered a pair of the new Type-R's (600rms each), and i'm trying to upgrade from my T500-1bdCP. The T500 puts out 800rms (which im just gonna keep it around to break in the alpines), but im trying to find something for when i wanna move air. I'm runnin a stock batt, stock alt, with the big 3 upgrade, so i'm not trying to do any more than 1500rms. I will be running at 1ohm. Prefferably in the $200-$300 range. my friend wants to sell me his American Bass 80.1. It supposed to do 1000rms @ 1 ohm (i think) but i dont know whether these amps are underrated or overrated. It was really loud in his SUV. does anyone have some info on these? Im also looking at the Hifonics BRZ1700.1d. The specs say that it requires 2guage wire, when my car is run with 4guage. can i get away with using the 4gauge? i expect this amp is a little bit overrated, but does anyone really know?

i talked to bob from american bass the other day because i was undure about the HD series amps too. he said that the HD series is basically replaceing the VFL series, because people would look at the 100.1 and think its a 100 watt amp when in all reality, it puts out 1500rms. basically, all i know is that the HD1500 is replacing the 75.1 (750rms at 1), and the HD2500 is a cross between the 80.1 and the 100.1 (1250rms at 1). I'm unsure about the rest of the line, he seriously needs to update the website.

Standard format for measuring loudness using 1 watt for power and measuring output from 1 meter away. And considering it's measured using a single watt, yes you should be able to get quite a bit louder then that.... im using a 1 watt amp? dont you? i thought thats what it was telling me to do... -

honestly, look in the manual. it should say something like "sensitivity 87dB" im not sure what it means, but i think it means... chances are you wont score higher than that on termpro. -
shit man, throw those on a rockford T1500-1bdCP. Its rated at 1500rms at 2 ohms, and even more at 1 ohm.

hahaha you always intrigue me man, please tell me more. The HDC is rated at 1000rms. Do you really think it could handle alot more that the sds?? -
I'm really trying to figure out what i should do when i upgrade this summer. I'm diggin the audioques ALOT. The question is, which subs to get. My amp is a T500-1bdcp that does over 800 at 1 ohm. I'm either thinking Two SDC2.5 12s in 4cu/f at 33hz or One HDC312 in 3(ish) cu/f at 33hz Basically what i'm looking for is very loud bass that will make everything blur and i still wanna maintain decent sq. I KNOW i will be underpowering whatever i get, but i seriously plan on grabbing a AQ1200d later on down the road. My Fosgate is just too new, too fresh and WAY TOO distortion free, even when being generous with the gain knob. Not to mention, i really enjoy how shiny it is hahahaha. So which sub(s) should i go with??

dont add holes or ports. cough up $50 and just build a new box. -

i dont have the space in my trunk to make the box any bigger -
i believe the hifonics is alot more efficient and better made. and i think the new hifonics amps are cea certified. i'd get a 2nd opinion tho.
