Re: Amp Help...

I probably wouldn't put more than 450 watts into it. I'm pretty sure the 12 handles up to 500. Refer to the stickies above the audio forum to see what NOT to get, otherwise, I'll leave the brand choosing up to you. Alpine is good, as mentioned but it isn't the only one.

Re: Amp Help...

you know what, belay my last...
after reading this on the page you posted, I'm with playstation3...

The PDX mono amplifiers can be used with virtually any subwoofer(s).
PDX amps produce the same amount of power into both 2ohm and
4ohm so they will get the most from your subwoofers in almost any
situation.

the amplifiers with features like this usually do it by actively varying the current draw...it's a good deal
