Amp Suggestions

I would like a 600x1@2 ohm amp to hook up to my two Infinity Reference 1060W's. I do not want to spend much. Anything cheap but clean?

How cheap is cheap? Are you looking for future upgradability as well?

Probably not going to upgrade. Not more than 150 if possible.

Those are both nice options. You can also take a look into an Alpine MRP-M650 or MRP-850. Both can be had around that price (used). I've ran both, and they were great. Just browse around the classifieds section: there's tons of amps in the price range you're looking at.

If anything, this is your best bet: Audiopipe AP15001D. There are plenty of reviews on the forum about this amp, so just look it up if you're skeptical. Don't be fooled by the price - you get a lot for your money. Take it a bit easy on the gains and you'll be fine. Lots of power, especially if you plan to upgrade in the future. It's class D, so it'll be a bit easier on your electrical than a class A/B amp. The seller is a highly respected dealer in these parts - I'm yet to read anything bad about them. I've had a great experience with them in the past as well.

But if you really are set on $150, and are 100% sure you won't want to upgrade, just browse around the classifieds - you'll find something for sure. This guy is selling his AP15001D for $150 plus S/H, you should be able to talk him into $150 shipped since it's only $165 brand new.
