amp suggestions

[kungfoojesus 10+ year member]

Which amp should I use for 2 re8's? SVC 2ohm subs. I just ordered them and they'll be shipped in about 7-10 days so keep the suggestions coming. I just want the least expensive but reliable amp to run the 150rms to each of these. On a budget, college is expensive... UPS doesn't pay THAT well

UPS? So *you're* the brown santa! how you must envy those whose subs you deliver! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif j/k

JBL 300.1? Do you need a SSF?

Haha I wish I was the brown santa. Actually I'm the guy in between the drivers who smashed and left a foot print on your box. Well, not very often j/k! I see very few BIG subs since I work on the sort aisle and no boxes over 69lbs come across to me from the trucks. Anyway, I don't know much about sub sonic filtering or whatever so if someone could explain to me what SSF is I would appreciate it.

SSf filters out the low lows in a ported box(way below tuning)

i think he knew the acronym...just didn't know what that implied //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

So is it useful at all for a sealed box? You're right I understood the acronym but still don't know what SSF does exactly for my ears.

Which amp would be better for 2 SVC 2ohm re8's in a sealed box? profile CL600M or CL600? Both of them have a little bit different features. Is it better to run subs off 2 channels or is it better to run them in series so I could get them up to 4ohm and run them off a single channel amp? Would 225 destroy them or would 150 be too little?
