I was wondering if its bad to over power your subs. I have a amp that has 800 watt RMS and the subwoofer is 600 watt RMS

Or does anyone know a place to get a cheap amp with 600 per a channel?

Have you ever thought about maybe turning the gain down?

If you hear distortion or clipping then turn it down. Over power a sub would mean that you might be clipping it.

those are 3000W RMS

both of those subs can use 3200 rms.

the extra 200 rms would make a difference wouldnt it?

No those are 1600W RMS. An AP3000 will do just fine (as long as it's properly cooled).

My comp setup (Not bad for what it is):

HP Compaq Presario V6120US laptop with:

15.4" widescreen

AMD Turion 64 X2 1.6GHz processor

2x1GB stick DDR2 SDRAM (667 Mhz)

Seagate Momentus 500GB SATA HDD

128MB shared video memory

Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit

12 cell Lithium Ion battery (actual battery usage time: 6 hours)

i meant 3200 rms together both of them.

And thanks. Any suggestion on how to cool them? Im just putting them into a simple box in the cab of a 01 tundra.

and box suggestions? ive never built a box before so i need some help. I see the different kind of boxes, sealed ported, and etc. What should I do?
