Which Amp for Sundown SA


Recommended Posts

Looking for a amp to run 2 12 Sundown SA's. Have some choices below and have a reason behind it so let me know your opinion and also if theres other better trust amps out there that will do clean power. I will be running stock alternator and changing out my stock battery and probably run the same or smaller battery in the rear. Big 3 is done in 0 gauge. Might get my stock rewound which puts out 150A stock.

1. Sundown SCV2000D-The most powerful amp out of the three. Once my box rise and electrical kick in I'm guessing the subs will see around 1500RMS.

2. Rockford Fosgate T1500BDCP- I think this might be the best choice because it does 1500RMS at 1 and 2 ohms and once box rise and electrical kick in it will hover in between there and will still see the juice.

3. JL Audio HD 1200/1 - Also a good choice. Have the subs wired to 2ohms since this amp isnt 1ohm stable. The good thing about this amp is that it does 1200RMS between 1.5-4ohms and will also put the rated power between 12.5 and 14.4volts

Your gonna get a lot of different answers on this topic but the SCV I think is the best choice , I'm an American Bass fan so a VFL 120 is perfect for those but it's similar to the SCV.

I know Ill get a lot of different answers that's why I'm gonna get peoples opinions. I kind of leaning towards the JL Audio 1200/1v3 just becuase it does the rated power at 1.5-4ohms and also between 12.5-14.4 volts. So no matter what the sundowns will see 600RMS per woofer. My seconds choice would be the RF T1500 just because it does 1500RMS at 1 and 2 ohm. I know the amp is a bit underrrated and will do about 1800RMS but with box rise not sure how much power the subs will get.

I can tell you in my experience just as a reference for your electrical, when i had a 170 amp mechman with my two group 65's running my Sundown 50.4 and 2000D i'd see the 12.2v led blink very briefly on a SMD VM-1 when i ran it full out.

Not a whole lot of help for your question i suppose.
