2007TBSS Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 (edited) I posted a similar topic over in amplifiers, but after 3 days I only got one response, so I'll try here. Like to get some input on what's good and not good these days. My current set of amps from an old install are barely pushing the new subs. Budget is less than $400 for a mono block and matching 4 channel. Plan on doing the big 3, running single 0 gauge to the back and grounding to the frame. New battery ASAP. Preferably a matching type set of amps for a nice clean install look. No room for extra battery, so the other problem is they both need to run on a single under hood battery. Running 2 X 12" Dual 2 ohm SEX = RMS: 600 watts. So stated wattage would be 2ohm mono. I am leaning towards the HiFonics Brutus 1700.1 and 8 0 X 4 4 channel but wondered if there was something better. Also looked at the AudioPipe, RE Audio amps and MB Quart amps. Heard the 4 channel Quart was good but no info on the Quart mono. Thanks!

Watch the bass Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 (edited) My link, dB-R electroni have a nice SAE 1200 D and SAX 1200 D for 260 $ and buy a used RF or other well known 4 channel. No prob to have a 10 year or older RF in the trunk, beat the shit out of your mids.
