Help Picking a amp for 2 xfls (12s)

[-BenBen- 10+ year member]

Im looking into either A - Audioque 3500, B- American Bass Vfl 200.1 Or C - American bass vfl 450.1.

Im trying to get a good solid amount of power after box rise, ect. But i dont want to blow the subs. Im more of a daily ground pounder then doing burps ect. Which amp do you guys rec. and btw the only reason the 450.1 is in the equation is incase i want to upgrade a little later

500.1 benben

aim assuming i would have to set the gain pretty low right? unless i run at 4 ohm.. but i want to run as much power as i can without blowing them

AQ would be more then enough for that setup. If you can not get loud enough off 3-4k, then you're doing it wrong lol.

depends on the build ,but anything is posible

To do a 150+ it takes more then just cramming on power and hoping for the best. It takes testing and time.

I have seen 150's out of a trunk with far less.

Rebelfromva had a single xfl 12 on a DC 2.0k and went 146 iirc on stock alt and 1 or 2 batts.. With a little extra power, extra sub, and the right adjustments, should be feasible. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
