I have 2 and was wondering what would be a good amp to run these with. I am trying to spend under $200

RMS and voice coils?

 

[casums415 10+ year member]

single voice coil, 400 rms

 

[casums415 10+ year member]

does that mean that each channel on the amp needs to be around 300watts or so?

 

[benchambers80]

i got 1 of these

[benchambers80]

i was told i need a mono channel amp. why is this?

 

[benchambers80]

not a must, just draws less current

let me know if you are interested in those amps i posted

150 for either

 

[casums415 10+ year member]

thanks for the offer, will consider. so when comparing amps, if it says it has 500 watts rms and 2 channels. does that mean it has 450 watts per channel

 

[casums415 10+ year member]

sorry *250 watts per channel

 

[casums415 10+ year member]

would this be powerful enough? http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/Sony-ZR-Series-2-1-Channel-Amplifier-XM-ZR1252B/sem/rpsm/oid/208994/catOid/-13095/rpem/ccd/productDetail.do

lmao no that is garbage.

look for something that is 1000w or so @2ohm.

sorry to ask again but, if an amp is rated at say 800watts and has 2 channels. does that mean it has 400 watts per channel?
