ok id like some input on this i got 2 15in lvl 5 dual 1 ohm subs but undecided on what amp id like was thinking the soundstream xxx6500 or to much XXX10000D if thats possible i think thats to much id like to get just 1 amp but if i need to ill get 2 my electrical is good bigger alt and iv got 5 hc2400s so id like input on what would be the best choice somewhere around 1400 is the most i can spend

well first of all your gonna see some weird ohm load bc of 3 subs unless you get custom coils so make sure you take that into account. also if your not gonna give each at least 2500rms id go with a different choice even though they are rated at only 2k.

retarded build on the way.....

i wouldn't go with sound stream amps, they don't make rated power unless you're running 16+ volts, you should check out dc power engineering about your alternator though

as long as you have the electrical to back it up, the SS amps work well. If you are interested in a SS 10K, PM me, can hook you up cheap

i'd say a big one.....lol, na

I ran my 2 lvl 5 15" subs on 2000w each, 3kw, and 5kw, out of the three, the 3kw was the worst because of the amps I was using. Very power hungry and not clean power. Look for some good efficient amps that are rated atleast 2kw at like 12v. trust me, i went through the whole buying an amp that does its power with like 14..4 volts but won't come close after voltage drops to mid 11's at full tilt
