Need help choosing amp.

[gizmo1]

Need help finding a amp that does around 2k in the $200-$300 range. Are there any good ones in this price range? Looking to power 2 level 3s.

No u can buy a shitty hifonics for that price. Keep saving it will be worth it .

Well originally was going for scv2000d but decided I'll never get all my equipment purchased if I keep holding out for better gear. Talked myself down to a soundqubed 2200.2 because it was a little cheaper.

Now looking for something in the in the 200-350 range. If I can't find anything I'll go with one of my first 2 options but honestly I think there are a lot more options in that range than hifonixs. Just from reading a couple of threads on here today I found some decent looking options in that range.

Also Idk why but I am biased against hifonics I've only actually had one and didn't keep it long enough to form an opinion just never like it.

U get what u pay for the scv is an awesome amp, better to start with the best rather then end up buying it later anyway. This addiction is not cheap.such a difference in sound when running quality parts.

To be honest my first choice was dc 2k but decided it was way out of my price range. I'm going to be buying 2 of whichever amp I decide on and use them to power 4 level 3 15s I probably would have had my 2nd level 3 and one of the scv amps by now but shit just keeps coming up where I have to blow the money I have put up it's getting frustrating for sure. And I haven't even bought alt batteries or cable yet haha thinking about stripping the power wire, head unit and the amp out of my car for now. Just so I can get my bronco halfway set up I only have my car for another week before I gotta give it up lol.

Personally, if it were my money, I'd rather buy a used amp from a quality manufacturer than to buy a new amp from a shitty build house.

[Ron36]

The only thing that matters is u like your setup just trying to help I've wasted thousands of dollars on this addiction and now know stick with the high quality names it makes a huge difference I got 3 shitty amps just laying around my garage for years (alpine, pioneer and hifonics). That doesn't include all the subs I've bought and sold.

Yea I've had plenty of cheap equipment pass through my hands too. Still don't have anything worth bragging about. Current setup is a single sa8 powered by a Memphis 1200 watt amp and a Kenwood in dash DVD player. I guess it's pretty decent but I definitely had to go bigger. The sa8 is decent but a lot less output than I'm used to.

i would go for the crescendo bc 2000d $499 just keep saving

[gizmo1]

That's an option I considered too I hear a lot of people talk highly of crescendo.

Any good 2k amps out there that are extra long (no homo) I like that look though I think long amps are sexy.
