Good morning. I've been reading the forums for a few days now and finally joined. I was wondering what are the thoughts between getting one of the following:
Added Boston Acoustic gt-2125 $123
RMS Power Rating(CEA-2006-A):
Bridged, 4 ohms: 400 watts x 1 chan.
Bridged, 2 ohms: 600 watts x 1 chan.
RMS Power Rating(12V):
Bridged, 2 ohms: 475 watts x 1 chan
New MB Quart FX1.600 (around $100 with 1 yr warranty, $114 with 3 year warranty)
Class AB
RMS Power Rating:
4 ohms: 300 watts x 1 chan.
2 ohms: 600 watts x 1 chan.
Signal to noise ratio: 95dB
Variable low-pass filter: 40-300 Hz
Subsonic filter: 10-40 Hz
Frequency response: 10-300 Hz
Used Alpine MRP-M500 (History unknown. $101 but has a 2 year warranty for that price)
Class-D (Digital) Amplifier Type
RMS Power at 4 ohms: 300W x 1 (1% THD)
RMS Power at 2 ohms: 500W x 1
Signal to Noise: 100dBA
Adjustable low-pass filter (50-200Hz, 24 dB/octave)
Subsonic Filter (24 dB at 15 Hz)
Frequency Response: 20 -200Hz (200Hz/-3dB)
The setup this will be used on:
DDX-418 head unit
One Subwoofer: Infinity 1260w in a single sealed enclosure RMS: 300 watts Impedance: Single 4 Ohm
Could switch to a 1262W if it would be better/beneficial. Specs are the same except for Dual VC instead of single.
Any feedback/suggestions are greatly appreciated. I've only been given about $100 budget for the amp so those two seem to be decent. I'm only looking to fill in the low end, nothing more.
