Best budget or used amp for one kicker l7 15

[Rockchopper86]

I'm sure there are tons of these threads but I have been away from car audio and don't know what brands are good now a days. Lol. So anyway I have one kicker l7 15 I tried a Kenwood kac 9106d and it ****** also tried a Boston acoustic 1000 watt rms amp and it didn't get it either. Now mind you I'm comparing to a old beet Kenwood 600 watt max amp that got it moving better then either of those. So recommend me something sub 200 bucks that can move this sub or a good used amp to keep an eye out for. Vehicle the amp will be going In has big 3 and 0 gauge amp wire ran.

I did and pmed a couple people. That being said this isn't a wanted ad I'm asking for opinions. For example I'm hearing alot about audio pipe I'd never heard of them before and can't demo one. Would that be a good amp? Or do you have something you recommend?

No. Audiopipe is not good. I don't care what anyone else says, quite honestly

Lol. Ok. So like I said I was disappointed with the new Kenwood and Boston acoustic. Any recommendations on something that won't disappoint? Like I said 0 gauge power and ground and big 3 only 140amp alternator tho

May be happier with PPI, but I don't have experience with them.
@big scott; is selling one on here for a good price though.

You will be just as disappointed with the audiopipe as you were with the Kenwood and Boston.

older used is always best for budget ... like that rf 800a2 in classifieds... that might kill that kicker though... lol hifonics amps... brutus is best hifonics has to offer ive seen for amps.. zeus is alright wont do rated but at the price point you can buy bigger to get what you need... ppi got budget amps, audio pipe will get the job done but it will be dirty and if u like slamming the sounds youll end up cooking coils... but im a aggressive listener... lol but best advice i can give you is buy older high quality over new low quality...

oh forgot rf prime series ok for budget runs a lil hot though...

Ya I seeing that. I know Kenwood was never top of the line but seriously the 10 year old 600 "max" Kenwood I'm running atm just made 2 new 1000 watt rms amps "one being another Kenwood" look like nothing.
