1500+@1 or 4

i have a concept cc-d1200 and would like do upgrade my amp to something with a bit more juice... i know my sx can handle more daily (despite certain opinions) and if i wanna uprgrade i can...

1st, would 1200-1500 of clean power be a noticable difference?

if so, which amp should i grab? :/ budget is around 300 thanks all!!

PG-Tantrum for 1200 wrms at a 4 ohm load. The higher impedance makes the sub happy. =)

now why would the sub care if its wired at 1 or 4 ohm???

i vote for a soundstream ega1400d. they pop up on ebay every once in a while.

1400w @ 1ohm...i've had mine measured to do about 1600w //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

high power @ 4 ohm mono.....the way to go

Also wiring in series can increase the BL, which can affect the SQ in a good way.

orion 2500d 1200@ 4 ohms i think it maybe a bit under rated

Used or refurbished is the only source now, as they were discontinued...
