Watch the bass Posted March 11, 2011 Report Posted March 11, 2011 This is a well known brand here in the forum, good watts for less money. Or the 1800 watt modell, idk what rms-watts your subs need. Quote "in the abundance of water, the fool is thirsty" Bob Marley

Ive looked at a few amps like the PA 5500 but theres prolly somethin out there better I havent seen. Don't buy that PA 5500 amplifier, I am sure we can find you something much better for around the same price. But first we need some info from you.... What ohm voice coils do your subwoofers have? Dual 2 or 4? The subwoofers you have say they can handle 1000 watts rms. If you want to give each one 1000 watts rms you will have to probably do the big 3 under the hood and get the biggest AGM deep cycle battery you can under the hood. We need to know what ohm voice coils you have before we pick out an amplifier for you, get back to us and we can help you!

Robert8252 Posted March 11, 2011 Report Posted March 11, 2011 (edited) I would never buy a power acoustik amp again. I've ran a few but audiopipe is 100x better IMO from what I've used. No matter what you kind of screwed yourself getting two dual two subs. Final load has to be 2ohms now. Let me see if I can find something. ....

I havent got em yet. lookin at $280 tho figured its my best bet plus i like pioneer so I dont really want anything else for subs unless you got somethin really good in mind for as much or less than that price.
