[QUOTE="strobe, post: 8757216, member: 676536"] Lots of factors to what kills a sub, you can get away with a more powerful amp in a sealed enclosure more than a ported one. Clipping kills so as long as the sub is fed clean power and isn't bottoming out it should be fine but I'd stick to rms rating to be safe. What sub is it? An alpine 500 mono would be a good choice for 300@4ohm. Also I'd run 4ga OFC wiring kit which will allow for a little future proofing if you want to upgrade - knukonceptz is always my go-to but any OFC will work, I think stinger is a little cheaper. I'd stay clear of the cheap CCA kits [/QUOTE]
