Charles Stites Posted September 21, 2012 Report Posted September 21, 2012 im currently looking for a monoblock amplifier to run 2 12" alpine type-e. im looking for something in the 500-750 rms range as i will be switch to either ascendent audio arsenals and sundown subwoofers sometime this winter. so far the amps i have in my car at sonic are the mb quart onyx 1000.1D and the re audio dts-1500.1 the mb quart does 750 rms @ 2 ohm and the re does 700 rms at 2 ohm.. any other amp suggestions with a budget of $160 shipped or less. Thank you.

Charles Stites Posted September 23, 2012 Author Report Posted September 23, 2012 the apsm amp looks good my only worry is my subs i currently have are 250w rms and 750 peak. so i believe i can get away with about 700-750 watts for the pair rms and the apsm puts out 1000w rms at 2 ohms. the only tool besides my ear for setting gains i have is a multimeter i havent spent the money to get a oscope or steves products yet. i have been looking at the apsm1300 which puts out 600@ 2 ohms and 1000@ 1 ohm. does anyone have any experience with this one? ive seen the clamp tests for the 1500 series showing they do rated but does the 1300 do rated or close.
AAKSOKOLD Posted September 23, 2012 Report Posted September 23, 2012 Just get the apsm 1500 and be careful with the gain! That way you'll already have a little more power if needed and headroom. Me & My DJ*!
KMS Posted September 23, 2012 Report Posted September 23, 2012 I get my gains with a DMM. Works good dude. Alpine PDX-V9 Morel Tempo 6 Alpine SBR-S8-4 Alpine CDE 149BT
