[QUOTE="BnGRacing, post: 7470634, member: 557400"] There are no good 1/2 ohm stable amps. A good amp, to me anyway, will have no noise, good onboard processing, and be reliable. Big watt D-Class subs amps are generally pretty noisy, have awful onboard processing, and no amp can be considered reliable when tasked with powering close to a dead short. I don't like 'em. The question I have is why are you looking for a 2kW amp? You'd be really shocked what a good 5-800w amp can do compared to a lesser quality amp that has a higher power rating. Don't get too caught up in the numbers game as adding more power usually causes more problems than it solves...not to mention added expenses. What subwoofer do you have and what kind of vehicle will this be installed into? You're much better off building a system around a particular amp or the vehicle than trying to make a certain sub work in your application as cheaply as possible. I say this b/c a good amp will flatter so-so speakers & subwoofers. A lower end amp can make really nice speakers & subwoofers sound like garbage. [/QUOTE]
