the pioneer does not have an adjustable subsonic filter so if you are running ported, that might not be the best amp for you. Might want to look at the classifieds and see if you can get a great amplifier.

here are some good ones for around that price...

Precision Power PPI BA5000.1D 5000W Black Ice Mono Class D Amplifier

Precision Power PPI BA7000.1D 7000W Monoblock Class D Car Amplifier

im running the 7000.1 and i like it........

getting a amp with more power is allays a good thing. you just set your gains right.

Gary, id love too but the sub set up he has is two 4 ohm SVC subs. So i can only wire down to 2 ohms.

I have a bass inferno bi3000d running two rockford p3 (dual 2 ohm) in a 1.05 cu/ft(per side) sealed which i upgraded from a single rockford he2 in a similar sized sealed box run off a ppi pc2200 and it just doesnt seem like its nearly as loud, low or smooth as it should be. I know that the small sealed size of the box is a good part of the depth issue and i know that a bass inferno amp isnt all that great, which led me to this quandry. Is the amp the problem? If so, what should i get thats cost effective? Im also thinking that the deck might be part of the problem its a Pioneer AVH-X4500bt dvd deck. Ive read that some of the multimedia decks dont really focus on the sub out section of the hardware. Im not a newb, but i have been absent from serious tinkering 12 volt style, mainly just dabbleing to keep my bass requirements met (which werent very high for quite some time) Sorry for the long post, just didnt want to leave any potentially pertinent info out.

First off if you got 2 d2 subs and got a 1.05 ohm reading then on sub is bad. Or both are bad also the pc 2200 is a stereo amp which means it won't work right on those subs without either getting low power or blowing the amp up get a mono block amp

Amp and box are the problems. You had a better amp and sub

sorry, i realized that after posting, but i figured i had a similar problem/issue

wait....Can i run 2 ohms on a 1 ohm amp? i wouldnt see why not. Would just be less power and less heat..or is there a design that makes it so you can only run 1 ohm

Well considering most of the time when you are wired at 1 you are playing music at 4+..... No it's fine and normally better on the amp as long as it's set right

Yes just don't go below 1

Screw it. Go .15 and blast it.

Well i mean...His old subs are some 150 rms 12'' kickers. Might be fun to see a sub explode in about 2 seconds flat.
