[QUOTE="dB-r, post: 6244762, member: 574699"] LOL your question about the battery... 1000 @ 2 ohms shouldn't be too hard on any decent battery and at least a 100 amp alternator so you can run all the other stuff in your car and the sound system at the same time. I think you are going to need an amp called a "Kicker" amp. Seems they are 2 ohm amps, though most people here try to run them at 1 ohm because they do more power at 1 ohm.... but they are not cheap either... Other suggestion might be if your subwoofer has 2 voice coils... use a 500 watt x 2 amp. Class AB. Like a Rockford Fosgate 500.2, I think they do make one. Not sure on the price though... Or a JL 1000/1, but again, price is high. If I had to do 2 ohms, I would get a SAZ-2000D and have a really nice 1000+ x 1 @ 2 ohms. Or strap two smaller amps together, for 1000 @ 2 ohms, but I am not sure who if anyone makes strappable amps that are only 500 watts @ 1 ohm.... [/QUOTE]
