Amp Help!

[TRDevelopment 10+ year member]

what is a good AMP to power this system. IM thinking of 1 amp to power the whole system.

this is the system:

Infinity components (1) 35rms-70peak,4ohms

Subs - Alpine SWR12 (1) 100-300rms-1000peak dvc@2ohm

or

ALPINE SWS or SWE 12 inch at 2ohm or 4 ohms 50-200rms-600 peak.

as you can see this system is not for breaking any SPL or SQL records this is just to fill a females system. I am looking for a nice AMP that can power this system - front speakers and (1) sub in sealed enclosure.

any help is very much welcome.

Are you gonna wire up both of the Alpine subs??

But either way, use a different amp for the speakers and then an amp for the subs. The subs on one amp and the speakers on a different amp, like an amp for your highs and mids.

PPI makes a Pro 6800 or something like that. Good amp but pricey. However. I have never ever been a fan of just using 1 amp to power everything. If it dies, U have NO tunes. Get 2 amps one for the subs and one for everything else. Its not that much wiring..

nah i know it will run! a one amp system. im just looking for the right amp.

the system will only have 1 SUB!

i was thinking of USX4080. but i dont know if it will hold! i had an SS amp before that powered my whole system. i even got a LEVINSON that powered the whole system so i know it works. my concern is the RMS needs. hence the posting of its SPECIFIC RMS NEEDS. thats why im asking for the RIGHT AMP! and this is not for SPL nor SQL just a daily system, nothing to beat.

you definitely want two amps

go with two

you can get to good ones, you dont need big ones

i think is hard to find an amp because of the low power handling of the componets because if the hangling of the comps were a little higher you can always bridge chan. 3,4 of the amp and power the sub...

i think like the most of here... get 2 amps.. it´ll we cheaper and easier to fit...

Go here: I posted a few pics. My install is really not that much to look it. I like it that way. Clean and hidden but it rocks....

All wood, just a false front fited around the box to close off the open space behind it. Very basic but fairly clean.
