Re: amp for dual 6 ohm subs

well, they're rated at 1000rms, but they're audiobahns, so I would send them about 3/4 of that to be on the safe side. You should wire the subs together in parallel/parallel to give you 1.5ohm, and then you can run something like a JBL 1200.1 to them and give 600 to each sub.

Re: amp for dual 6 ohm subs

I always thought of JBL as the PRO sound people. check out the kicker SX1250.1 at Crutchfield

Re: amp for dual 6 ohm subs

the Hifonics amps could also serve you well here probably the 1500 which would give you about the same as the JBL...Just another alternative

Re: amp for dual 6 ohm subs

brutus 1500d would work, he'd get around 11-1200rms with that
