1000 watts at 2 ohms

[spydyplayer 10+ year member]

Okay here's the problem...I just bought two Alpine Type R 15's. I was gonna buy a BX1500D amp from Hifonics to power the two at 2 ohms. Since the amp is rated at 1000 watts there....I figured it would be a good choice but I've also heard that the BX1500D doesn't have accurate numbers at 2 ohms....People say it produces closer to 900 watts....Anyone know what I should do? Stick with this amp or possibly choose another one in the same price range? Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks in advance for your time.

Nine.1 is rated at 900 watts at 2 ohms but it is prob. over 1000. I LOVE THIS AMP!!

I just got 2 Alpine type R 12's, and I am running an Orion 1200D at .5 ohm. I think that you should give them more power. Mine are 500rms each and they are handleing at least 800 each now with ease. Loud as hell.
