Amp Suggestions.


Recommended Posts

Ok so electrical is not a problem. I can upgrade alts, more batts, more 0/1 so its not really that big of a problem.

I need suggestions on amps...the subs are 9918 Dual 2 ohm, and will be in a wall.

So either.. One amp that is 0.5 ohm stable with around 6 to 8kw OR one amp at 2 ohm that has 6-8kw

If I go two amps I can master/slave them at 1 ohm each, so 1 amp per sub.

I've been looking at the Soundstream XXX series, at the 6500D's. At 14 volts they are rated at ~4450watts, but at 16 they are rated at 6500.

Any suggestions would be great.

Keep in mind this is a daily driver, the alternator already runs at 15 volts, so my MLA module will be set at 15 for low, and 16.3 for high.

I know more batteries is a must, and more runs of 0/1, which won't be a problem.

Start throwing suggestions!

IMO the XXX series are pretty pooz unless you're running true 16v (with 18v+ charging/float).

2 Sundown SAZ-3000D's strapped @ 2 ohms will give you about 6-7kw.

Otherwise 2 of the big Zenon's/similar would work well - AB VFL400.1/500.1, Atomic AT5000.1, Cactus 5kw, Hifonics ?, Memphis 4kw, IA 40.1... there's a nice long list there.

Also Rockford T3000's or T4000's?

I would look at the Sundown 3000D's, two of those strapped would do the job and right now they are having a sale on them, you could get two and have some change.
