00_XJ Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 I drive a ford ranger standard cab, i had one kicker comp 10 and a p.o.s. pioneer 300 watt amp in it due to the lack of space and frankly i wasn't into the whole loud system thing. That is, until I started hanging out in the steve meade forum and going to the local car shows and I realized I needed to go bigger and better. So i sold the system and after a few weeks saving I purchased two kicker solobaric 12's and built a box for them, but due to lack of money and only making minimum wage I have to wait until next week to purchase an amp. This is where I need help. I was wondering what size amp. to get and which kind? I know they say you get what you pay for but like i said I work for minimum wage so I'd like to keep the price low plus I don't plan on showing it off it's just for me personally. Links would be great too. Thanks alot. Quote 2000 Jeep Cherokee -DC Audio -Memphis -Audioque -SecondSkin -Pioneer -KnuKonceptz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
