I have Exucution Audio 1500, for sale. $235 shipped. Brand new btw.

EA is CT Sounds lower line.

I'm on a budget and trying to stay under the $200. But thanks for the offer

My opinion is spend the $35 and u will have MORE power, just turn the amp down to 900-1000 watts and u have 400 left on tap if u upgrade ur speaker. Plus u won't have to squeeze every watt outta 1000 watt rated amp, a 1500 is only working 3/4 of its potential so it's easier on its internals. Just my opinion, not saying I know much just how I see from the outside looking in. It's ur rig u know what u need to run. Seeing the E-series sundown are 500 watts rms each I wouldn't throw anything less then 800 for BOTH. If ur gonna run a 500 watt amp just run a single one of ur 12". 500 watts amp pushing two 12" only gonna see 250 each, half of what they are designed to handle. But AGAIN just my opinion my good sir.

Ive been using this amp, very happy with it, its able to be strapped if you want more power in the future (double up). $169 shipped to Hawaii from Amazon about 6 months ago. Its an upgrade from the suggested Alpine M500 someone posted above, I replaced my Alpine with the APCL. Before that I had a Polk Audio 900watt amp that was stolen. The APCL has been the best "budget" amp I've had in recent years. All the sub amps I've used for the past 3 years have been sub $200 like you're looking for also.
