It looks good for the money. I'm wondering what subs I could run on that. Lookin to run 2, preferably 12"s.

Is it too much for my needs? If so give me a setup with another amp.

-Thank you in advance

The amp is not too much power for a pair of 12's. There are other amps that would be just as powerful, but costing far less..look at the mtx road thunder line..most of the mtx amps power speck are rated at 1/2 of thier real power...and cost 1/2 of what the rockfords do.

MTX is a much better value ... Punch and a pair of JL W0 used to be the shiznit but those days are long gone.

I think the statement about underrating by 50% and costing 50% less than rockford is a big exaggeration.

All comes down to how much money you have...
