Help picking out an amplifier

haha yeah they would, or if you save up a little a Crescendo 3k would make you very happy, i believe they are around 550. That Audiopipe will work fine tho aslong as you wired it up correctly.

Ill be sure to get it professionally wired by Perfect Soundz. What about a powerbass amp? Powerbass XA3000

It's gonna be tough to find a true 3k watt RMS amp for under 400$. Audiopipe is probably the cheapest I would buy. Unless you look around and can find a good deal on a used one.

That would suffice, just make sure you have the electrical to support it. May not get exactly 3k out of it but for your budget, it fits.

So how much does it cost to do the big 3?

Just gotta measure how much 0 gauge you need and buy terminals.

So I want an extra battery, big 3, and a capacitor?

Big 3, and probably 2 big batteries if you dont want to get an alternator. You will be running around 3k just to the subs so you are gonna need it. Figure out what your alternator can do and go from there. You're on the verge of needing a bigger one though.

is the subs your buying dual 1ohm or dual 2ohm ?

They can be either. You can choose on their website if you want 1 or 2 ohm.
