JBL, Memphis, or PG?

[Daniel 10+ year member]

Alright, im trying to push 2 Blaupunkt PCwi1200's. I have three amps in mind.

1. JBL 600.1

2. PG XS2500

3. Memphis 16-ST300

Which one of these would do best with these subs? I want around 300W rms into each of the sub. I'd rather have SQ than SPL.

get the jbl bp1200.1 its not much more money and its way better.

Agreed - JBL 1200.1 would be the way to go...its gotta be about the best combination of quality and cost effectiveness

Its a good amp i know,but i dont want to push my subs that hard. I only want to put about 300W rms into each sub. The RMS for the sub is 200, but I will put into a sealed box with less than 1cuft. hoping to get around 250-275W RMS with the sub. Give or take a little, i want roughly around 300W rms from amp. The jbl 1200.1 will give more than that, wouldnt it?

the 1200.1 is 600rms.

600 is the max for my subs, and they might be overrated, i dont want to find out. so with the jbl 1200.1 can i put 300w rms into both at 4 ohms?

i would get a memphis 500d ...... or jl 250/1 but the jbl is good

 

[Daniel 10+ year member]

with the memphis 500d would it give 300W rms to each sub. i want one amp to power two 300w rms subs remember.

the 300 is only 150 x 2 so you tell me lol

 

[Daniel 10+ year member]

no. i want to put 300 into eash sub, 600 in total

very little diff between 500 and 600 very little in fact to get a noticeable difference you gotta double power.

Just because an amp has more power than what you want to go to your subs doesn' t mean they will drive your subs harder than you want to.....just don't crank it up that loud..DUH !!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/banghead.gif.8606515f668c74f6de0281deb475b6fd.gif

I would have to agree with audiolife and recommend the memphis 500d...good amp, underrated, and would push those subs nicely
