Hi so i wasn’t sure what to look for in an amp but I got two rockford p2 12s. And I found skar rp 1200 1d mono block for under 300 (canadian) that seems like the best deal I can find that actually has more than 800+ rms that I figured I need minimum for these p2. I want to make sure I get the most out of my subs which I have to assume means picking the perfect amp. If this is not a correct choice for my subs can anyone please reccomend which amp in the same price range is best?
 
For me I don't like skar at all but if you have a budget it's probably your best option there better then some other cheap brands. Honestly look into ds18 amps I have one for my mids and I love it. I linked a couple of ds18 amp I would recommend way better then skar. https://ds18.com/collections/channe...nnel-monoblock-amplifier-1500-watts-rms-1-ohm

https://ds18.com/collections/channe...ss-d-1-channel-car-audio-amplifier-3600-watts

These are some great options

That skar will work just fine if that's what you get. They do rated power.


You might see what this stinger amp would cost off Amazon in cad...personally I'd do the stinger (mainly because a of cust serv experience with skar) but you might save a bit and get good amp

In all honesty you won't notice much (if any difference) between various amps with subs at the same power. It's really all about the box...the right box can make cheaps subs sound great and the wrong box can make the best subs sound doodoo 😂

They are in a pretty small box for the subs and it’s totally enclosed is that fine for these subs? Just bought it off marketplace for only 200$ with the subs lol Canadian too

It’s basically he same price as the skar on Amazon. But thanks for letting me know Ilol

It's about a box built for the specs of those subs especiallyif you're ported...if you're going sealed any good prefab around a 1 cubic ft each should be good
 
It’s 400 rms per sub so 800 total. Just needed to know if the skar amp was able
To be used or not but thanks
You can definitely use the skar amp I would look at some other brands before you buy the skar. If you already have it then use it. Also if there 800 total I would get like a 1k bc of impedance rise. I have a 3500 watt amp but I'm only seeing about 1200 watts of it because of box rise/ impedance rise
 
This may be an option for you as well. Im sure Amazon has them on theyre site also to be purchased. Great amps
