Budget Amps and Subs

[focused313]

I went with 2 12" TNT's as the XFL's were too much and did not leave much for an amp. I believe I have about 5.1 cubic feet to work with so it should be plenty good for 2 12's. I want to tune it low with a huge port if possible. Now for amp suggestions. The hifonics Brutus 2400, American bass ph4000 (massive N4), or another recommended reliable amp. I guess according to the rms of the subs, I only need a 1200 watt amp, but everyone knows those subs can take more than 600 rms. I have a DB Drive okur 2000 on my obsidian a and I loved it. I picked it up for $10 from Jeff Rowland, but I can't get so lucky this time around.

try to score a Hifonics BE1700.1D or higher .... you will not be sorry... or the BRZ1700.1D or higher if you cant..... the 1700's go for $200..... and dont go any newer.... everyone I know that has tried AB XFL subs gets to play with a slinky after about 1 month! I hope the lower models dont have coil issues!

ive had my 4 ab xfl 1222s on a dc5k running them full tilt daily and they still play fine for almost 2 years now. it all depends on how you set your equipment and if you have the electrical to back it up.

I'm pretty happy with my audio pipe acpl 1500 and love my sundown e series subs which are on your budget for sure. But I pair of sa 12a and that amp would be great
