Amp for Dcon 12" and Pioneer Comp Speakers

[wjelmer]

So I have Pioneer TS-D1720 C Component Speakers (RMS 60 watts) and will be buying a 12" SSA Dcon. I am looking to spend $150-200 on an amp/amps. My cousin and I will be building a custom Ported box (he is a carpenter). Its all going in an ext cab ranger so I will just have speakers in the doors.

A few Questions:

Should I buy a 4 channel amp to power speakers and subs or should I buy two amps?

Could you recommend the amp I should buy?

Should I buy the 2ohm or 4 ohm Dcon?

Thanks for any advice, sorry maybe be stupid questions but i'm a Noob.

You need more cash unless you want used decent stuff.

New I wouldn't go any lower than this.

You don't need to go that high. What I linked is perfect. If you wanted to go a bit more get the 500 mono version of that amp.

I have a DD c4a that would work well for you. Run channel 1&2 to the components and get a d4 12 and run it at 2 ohms bridged on the rear. About perfect honestly
