cdawgstalon Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 I am looking for honest opinions on some amp choices. i am currently running 6 12" type r subs in tha back of my 01' deville. I have 3 MRV F900 4/3/2 channels amps pushing them. i will soon be doing tha BIG 3 upgrade as well as more batteries and hopefully an alt upgrade. i would like to know what amp you guys recommend to push them if i switch, preferably monoblock amps and i would like to stay with one amp for each pair of subs. any opinions would helpfull. just trying to get some good advice. thanks for looking Quote currently just running a JL 12W7 and RF BD 1001 soon to come soundstream XXX 18 Memphis mojo MCD4KW Big azz box in tha backseat working out other details Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdawgstalon Posted September 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 well i would like to try to get one amp for each pair of subs, so 3 monoblock amps. right now the amps i have are really good but they are class a and i think i should go with class d. i will take power over some quality loss. I think thats how its rated, class a amps are better sound quality and class D are more power, correct me if im wrong because i just learned about that this weekend and it would be nice to know if thats what the classes are based on.

CaptainzPlanetz Posted September 2, 2009 Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 Do you have a specific budget per amp? Quote ¿ǝɯɐƃ ǝɥʇ Trolls never learn............

cdawgstalon Posted September 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 not really. if i get rid of my current amps i should be able to get just about anything i want. i was looking at either kicker or rockford but i just dont know. theres also soundstream, and ma, hifonics. i just want some good opinions and i can tell a lot of members use good amps here.

CaptainzPlanetz Posted September 2, 2009 Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 Well if you have the Dual 2 ohm subs, and you want to run an amp per pair, you will need an amp that will make its power at 2ohms or .5 ohms. What does your electrical look like, you could get like a sundown 1500d and run it at .5 ohms that is if your electrical is good. Some other companys that make there power at 2 ohms are Kicker, JBL GTO series, Alpine MRP, And there are the new Clarion DPX amps they make a little more than 1500rms at 2 ohms and are about 200 bucks a piece. http://www.crutchfield.com/p_020DPX1155/Cl...551.html?tp=115 Quote ¿ǝɯɐƃ ǝɥʇ Trolls never learn............

shainemcconnell Posted September 2, 2009 Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 If you have enough electrical to support it i would recommend looking at the Diablo Audio Technologies Hellfire 2500.1 one of these should push a pair of those subs just fine and actually have a bit of head room on the amp.

cdawgstalon Posted September 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 my electrical is ok. im going to get tha big 3 done soon, but with caddys and that brilliant under the backseat battery design, ive had to put that off cuz i gotta have tha local shop remove tha boxes to get underneath tha seat. and im gonna get more batteries and a voltage module so i can turn up tha volts. thats all gonna be done soon. along with an alt upgrade. i should be able to run whatever i need. i figure 3 2500 watt monoblock amps should work good. its just which ones to choose that becomes tha hard part. anymore advice is helpful, thanks guys Quote currently just running a JL 12W7 and RF BD 1001 soon to come soundstream XXX 18 Memphis mojo MCD4KW Big azz box in tha backseat working out other details Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
