I think the crunch one will do what its rated maybe?

How much less do you think they will put out?

Almost all crunch amps are rated in dynamic watts, that one is really like 750@ 1ohm. Same goes for the soundstorm. They will run the subs; but you gotta be carefull not to make it clip.

You really should consider waiting & saving money for a little while to get a better quality amp. You will be much happier in the end.

If your unsure, just look up the amp within the manufacturer's website and it will tell you more specifically how they are rated. Website spec listings aren't always the most accurate becuase they want to make a sale.

op you might ask in the classified section here. get a good amp but for a cheaper price. probably find one for around 200 or a little less

I have my mind set on a Hifonics 1208d.

Sometimes you can't if it is only clipping a little; but for the most part the sound comin from the subs will change if you were to listen to them from the trunk. Most often it will make a flat thud instead of a clean music note; atleast in my experiance.

Alright, I also have another amp I'm looking at, and I'll post the link up here later.
