Monoblock Amp Help!

[logan963 10+ year member]

Alright, I have a JBL W12GTI-MKII, its rated at about 700rms and 4000 peak, what would be a good amp for it? I currently have a Hifonics Brutus 1200.1, but that just isn't pushing enough power to it at 4ohms. I have a budget of about $300 and would like to have something that will push about 800rms at 4ohms, all recommendations a welcome!

Sorry wouldn't let me post a link to it!

Sorry, forgot to add that I need a 1 ohm stable amp! I plan on getting another w12 and wiring them in parallel to 1.5 ohms

Im liking the amp, but I can't find much info on it, what rms would it be putting out at 4 ohms, and what is the dampening factor on it?

it relatively a new amp offered by american bass ,there is a review done on the amp here .very efficient to .prolly only 600 rma at 4 ohms tho .run your one sub at 3 ohms for around 1000 rms on the 1 sub and when you get the other sub at 1.5 for 2000 rms

Sounds about perfect, is there any negotiating room on that price?
