[wafsman 10+ year member]

so i've finally got my speakers now i need help deciding on an amp. it will need to power four 12" subs rated at 300 rms and 600 max, with a 1-ohm load. would like to stay around or under $300, but i am open to all suggestions.

sounds reasonable, any other options? anybody have experience with this amp? does it put out what it says it will? will this be enough power?

are they the RE SE's by any chance?

no. does anyone know if a 2000 rms to these subs would be too much. if so, how far do you think i can push them?

It'd help to know what subs you are running...

those are about the two most different subs you could find and i wouldnt run the four together. just run the vfl's if you have those. they are not 300rms each. more like 1500w each. how about some pics of these subs. cone pic and bottom pic. if you indeed have teh vfl subs, i would sell the w3's to put money towards an amp. like an aq2200 or bigger.
