would be fine just be sure that the AP amp is not clipping when you set the gain

you will have to back off the vol after about 2 mins of playing but should be fine if ur careful. only a 4 layer coil and 3000rms could easily destroy that sub...

Remember its only "rated" for 1000rms //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

should I just get a brz2400 then, or should I just have the gain on the 3000d only up 1/4 way

why not just get an ap1500? half the price and will still push that AQ well. the new AP1500's are strappable so if later on you want to add another you can just get another ap

well is there any amp thats 2500rms at 2ohm it seems the 3000d is the best option I just have to turn down the gain and it will be fine

2500w on a solid electrical and clean power, yea. i wouldnt do more than 2200w on that audiopipe

Dude, every 3000w amp can make 1w....all the way up to 3000w. So the variable signal input strength and the gain on the amp will allow you to make any level between there if you are at 1ohm where the amp is capable of making said rated power. It's better to get the 3000d.......IT'S ONLY WHAT......$140 bucks!!?? Don't look at the gain knob as being 1/2=1500w, 3/4=2250w, 1/4=750w. The position of the gain knob does not work like that. Your best bet is to wire it all up and have the gain set by the oldest dude in the back of your local electronics repair place. (guarantee he knows more about how to do that properly than any shop around you). Entice him with a pack of cigs and he might not even charge you.

I realize that he can adjust the gain it seems a bit ridiculous to buy a 3kw amp for a sub thats rated for 1kw.
