If you had $2200 for amps what would you buy?

[Hertz Mafia]

I have four d2 woofers so I can wire that read alittle high.

all four to 1.2ohm

All four down to .33ohm

Each pair down to .66ohm

I really want a sundown NS2 but it just cost to much money. Can't afford it nor would I pay $3500+ for one amp. With that being said.

1.VFL 20k wired at 1ohm $2200

2. Two vfl 8ks wired at .66ohm each $2150

3. Two vital power 700.1 wired at .66each for $2200 he said if I bought two.

Or any other options? The vfl 20k looks like a beast but I haven't seen anyone with one yet. Anyone see any clamp numbers out of the VFL 20k?

Why not go Brazilian, I hear they're crazy cheap.

JK

I'd lean towards two amps as .66 should be somewhat safe and if one blows up you're not completely out of tunes until you can get it sorted out.

That would cost like $2400 for two of those and I don't think they would be louder then two vfl 8ks.

2 8ks.

Have you looked used? A pair DD M5s.

You might be able to find 2 xs8k's used in that budget

Yea so if I can get the vfl 8ks cheaper it would be a better deal. Lol

A vfl 8k is the same exact amp as a AB 750.1..... only difference is the case. Ones black and one is silver

Im not sure that the vfl 8k is better than the 750.

A few people out here have vfl 18ks getting **** for power

 

[mrj858 10+ year member]

Local guy has 3 of them....and I can tell you right now he's not getting 8k out of them

My buddy clamped 5k+ out of his 8k wired to .5ohm rising to unknown. And that was only one time, we didn't sit there and find what freq he gets the most power.
