What about PG Tantrum 1200.1's? Find any of those?

Might be over your budget though - I bought mine for $320 the week before they were discontinued by PG.

Yeah, thats way over my budget. From what I heard, as long as the sub amp is putting out its rated power, a cheap sub amp will get the job done just as good as an expensive sub amp. Looks like i may just go with that Hifonics Brutus amp.

I think someone benched it at 1348w at 1 ohm. Its a good amp in my opinion.

thanks, but that thing only puts out 700 watts at 2 ohms, and since thats what i will be running the sub at (sub only comes in dual 4 ) thats not nearly enough. Thats why i stated the amp has to put out 1000 watts at 2 ohms befoer.

Well, between this amp http://www.ikesound.com/product-product_id/2941 , and an Elemental Designs Nine.1 running at 2 ohms, which would be a better choice for an RL-P?

Trust me....700 watts to the Rl-p daily will sound real good and get loud. It doesn't need a 1000 watts to start sounding nice.

But what if i want 1000 watts? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif This sub will be going into a 1998 ***** Am BTW (Hatchback)

Well whatever you want....but I'm pretty sure you would be happy with 700. Have you read the forums over at SoundSplinter?

The difference between 700w and 1kW isn't much...I doubt you'd be able to tell a difference by ear.

Not really, but i figure there can't be any harm in getting a solid 1K watts.
