Can you guys recommend an affordable subwoofer amp ($200 or less) that will output around 700-1000W RMS? 1 ohm mono would be ideal. Looking for best bang for the buck. Appreciate any suggestions.

The amp has blown outputs from what you describe. When the output transistors blow they usually short which sends full power to whatever is hooked to it, essentially creating a short circuit. This causes the fuses to blow which protects the amp power supply from blowing up as well. You're...

I have an Audiopipe APMI-1500 amp that is on the fritz that I need to replace. The amp keeps cutting in and out at random. It's not overheating and I've checked all wiring. I have two 12" subs, Cerwin Vega VPRO124D that are rated for 700W RMS each. That figure is probably a bit overrated...

Sounds like you have the original AW1005's.  These subs were sold in the late 90's to early '00's.  The link the fellow provided above is essentially the same sub.  Audiobahn went through 3 or 4 revisions over the years, adding more chrome and bling with each revision.  The later revisions are...

Somehow I missed the E-mails notifying me of a reply, missed these posts until now.  Have heard great things about Sundown, while the CV was more of a shot in the dark.  The Sundown according to T/S parameters would have been better in a ported box.  What does the "B-stock" imply? I ended up...

Hey fellas, I'm looking to buy two Cerwin Vega Vpro 12" subwoofers and am really stuck on whether or not I should get the dual 2 or 4 ohm versions. I'm looking more for SQ than pure SPL.  But at the same time I want to maximize the amount of bass for the money spent. My amp is Audiopipe...

I just custom built the two enclosures, it maximizes the trunk space in my vehicle with a tuning frequency that will work with a lot of subs. So I'm not getting rid of them. As for the gain settings, I know how to set them. I've been in car audio for a long time, so please don't mistake my...

I have a HiFonics BXI1608D amp, said to put out 1600W @ 1 ohm. Yes, I understand that's probably overrated by a fair margin. Not too far back, I blew a single RE SX12 hooked to it, the voice coil rubbed against the magnet and the sub was done. Not sure if it overheated or what happened. That...
