amp for two 12s

[trevalberts]

I was gifted a set of two 12 inch subs. They are JL 12W0v3 - 4 (300w RMS) and are set in a ported box to specification.

I currently have a single 10" running from a 300.1 amp so I know I will have to power up to run the two 12s. Any suggestions for amps to run those JLs?

What's your price range?

Definitely don't want to break the bank on this one. I am just exploring the possibility since the subs are available for me to use. I have other options. It wouldn't be worth it to me to spend more than $300 on an amp for these since I already have a setup that does okay. **The 12s would definitely be better** I don't think they need much wattage since they're 300 rms each, maybe like a 500 - 600 w amp, but I admit I don't know much about this stuff. I'm not truly sure what they would need.

Sundown SFB1K

Yeah tbh that puts out more power then rated. And is only 170 bucks at Apex right now with 2 year warranty. They are connected to Sundown in the same building. Plus they and Sundown are going to be clearing out the SFB line it sounds like with the SIA line coming out in full force soon.

I've been looking for the SIA line. They've only released a SIA3500 so far. It does 3,500 @ 1 ohm and 3,000 @ 2 ohm. And, something like 1,950 @ 4 ohm.

So far yes the 3.5K is out, they are going to be releasing a lot more here soon. They just released the 5 channel SFB as well. Apex Audio has a 4x150 coming out this year as well that I have seen the specs and pictures of. Either way the SFB line is being cleared out at much lower prices then before because of the new line coming here shortly. Overall the SIA line is more powerful and more efficient all around from the testing I have seen on them from Apex and Sundown.

Did you see that I hit the meter with the 4- 8's today? I might pick up a SFB2K to run two Ampere Audio 8's.

Yeah I saw gotta love Sundown amplifiers. That SFB line is a damn good line.

That Cab-22 I have and now someone else here has has been getting the same kind of reviews that the SFB line did since it was done with Sundown input & testing. I know Sundown beat the crap out of 2 of the prototype Cab-22s and couldn't get them to blow up.

JP-8 puts out 650ish watts at 2 ohms. Wire your two 4 ohm subs to 2 ohm and bam, 325 watts per sub. And the ability for more power at 1 ohm if a sub upgrade ever occurs.

This amp is 'made' by a guy who runs a fairly large company selling car audio gear. I bought the larger amp JP23 and felt comfortable doing so.
He is a total basshead, trying to get in on the amplifier market.
Do a little research. YouTube BigDwiz did 2 videos on jp23 and dyno numbers showing it makes more than rated power. I would assume the same is true for the jp8 but it's pretty new. Not sure if anyone has put it on a dyno yet.

Never seen such a glowing endorsement for pedophilia.
