low end amp for HD3

[cha0 10+ year member]

As i continue the quest for my first SPL setup im trying to keep costs low. atleast for the first setup. i have too much cash going into the SQ setup so the SPL setup is on a strict budget.

My first choice for amp is going to be a hifonics brutus 2000d. Can anyone think of anything better than that for 400 or less? even if its used, i dont care. 400 is all im willing to spend on my first setup. thanks in advance. i see a lot of people running MA amps on there HD3s. what do you guys think?

If you have dual 2 ohm coils, I have a Soundstream PCA2000D I'll let go for $320 shipped. Does 2k rms at 1 ohm.

awsome list guys. Which one is the best quality out of this list? The only expierience i have with amps are a profile that i had on a W6 that was nice and a audiobahn that started on fire in the cab of my truck while i was driving to school.

i dont have the HD3 yet so ill get the rite VC config when i figure out what amp im getting.

i just want the best quality and cleanest power amp i can get for that cash.

well if the sub is dual 1.5 it has to be wired to either .7 or 3ohms..
