Hi guys i'm lookin for the best amp to push my fi q 18 it has the bp option so it can handle more power, i'm currently pushing about 750 watts through it now i want mo powa, so with the bp option to my understanding gives the sub the capability of taking 200-500 watts more than a standard 18" Q so would it be best for me to get a second t5002 amp and run one on each coil or get a 1500bd? sub is dual 1 so wiring is limited.

that is really what i wanted, so since i can only run it at 2 ohm would the 1500bd be the best amp or would the 1000bd work at 2 ohms? if i could see the birth sheet before buying to make sure a 1000bd was pushing 1000 to 1200 watts at 2 ohm i would buy that one due to cost.

I would get one t1500-1bdHC if you can find one. If not, I would just get the t1500-1bd because wiring and tuning are easier. You should expect around 1200wrms at 2 ohms on the standard t1500 with decent electrical upgrades

none of them are doing 750 at 2ohms though most are doing near the 1k at 1ohm and 1300 at 1ohm

my electrical is good so no worry there,just want to make sure when i buy the new amp i get exactly what i need cause the wife won't let me upgrade any further after its right lol but the 1 18 is perfect for my needs even in a huge suburban it knocks pretty hard. already dislodged my right rear side window :ehh:
