Best amp for 2 type-r 15's

[Amart88]

What would be the best amp for 2 alpine type-r 15's dual 2 ohm. I want a bass knob and it to be somewhat affordable. Each sub is rated for 750w RMS. 0 gauge input would be a bonus too. Thanks

How much are you willing to pay.

[blownengine]

I would look for something around 2000 watts. DC, AQ,Cresendo, or whatever else you find.

[MustangGT]

Yeah like ^ said. I would look into aq2200. Because you need1500rms plus @ 2ohms.

[imfrom210texas]

if they're dual 2 ohms, you can only wire them to .5 ohm, or 4 ohms. finding an amp that puts out that power at 4 ohms isnt likely, and running a .5 ohm load should be left to the pro's. you could run 2 separate amps (1 per sub@2 ohms)

^you can wire them to 2 ohms as well. Series/parallel, I have a brz 2100.1D so about 1400 rms, suits my needs, just my 2 cents.

... is there anyway to wire them to 1 ohm? and is it a mono block amp or a 2 channel?

Look into a PAC LC1 and buy whatever amp you want.

There is no way to wire two dual two subwoofers to a 1 ohm load. You could also get two 1000 watt amps that are strappable.

is strappable even a word? lol

EDIT: I'm an idiot. Alpine makes a 2000 watt amplfier that makes its power at 2 ohms. Most kicker amps do too.

Can also be 2 ohms

so would 2 ohms be the best option? and also when I"m looking at these amps it says ####watts @ 2 ohm X 1 channel. Does this mean 1500 watts on one channel is split into both subs? because its a mono amp
