[QUOTE="coleworld, post: 7446543, member: 635690"] Ok, i'm completely new to car audio. I looked around and bought a JL w3v3 in the JL H.O. box, the 4 ohm version. So now I'm trying to find an amp for it. I want to give it close to 500 watts, (the RMS). Every amp that I see that is a 500 watt amp is less then 500 at 4 ohm... I can't wire my sub in series to run a 2 ohm because its single voice coil. The only 500 watt amp I could find that runs 500 at 4 ohm is the JL 500/1, and that is expensive anyway. So what should I do here? I am trying to avoid spending as much money as possible... Are there any other 500w amps that can run 500 at 4ohms? It seems like a waste of money to buy a 1000w amp. I don't really know what I'm talking about as you can probably tell, so no hate please...i'm just trying to learn. [/QUOTE]
