What amps for 12's on single battery?


Recommended Posts

You don't have to have a million watts rms if you build the box right. Make the box as huge as you dare with one monster square or round port and you can easily get by with 1k rms or so.

I like this type of thread becasue it deals with what most people can and are willing to put in their cars. Nobody but us wants to swap alternators or ride with 10 batts in the trunk. The money is in amps that play behind a wire only.

We have used audiopipe, hifonics brutus, and american bass amps in the past without problems with any one of them. I know for a fact that the ap 15001d and the matching 4 channel can be had for well under 400 dollars and would sound great in a system.

Sounding great is a little bit big, sounding new great for the buck is right.

I stay to my guess go with the 1200 Sundown and get a nice wellbranded 4 channel amp, they will doe the finer sound.

Go with an audiopipe 1500 or 1800. I have a 3k with just a red top up front big 3 2 runs of power and ground stock alt. and I don't drop under 13. 4 . For highs I'd say a db drive a5 90.4 the cost on that amp is about 100. And its super small for the amount of power it puts out.

Build a better box :peepwall::pardon:

Who needs a better box?
