[QUOTE="el_chupo_, post: 2611902, member: 559190"] I am currently running an Alpine SWR 1041D. That is the Type R with the 300w RMS rating, dual 4 ohm VC, wired to 2 ohms. Currently ran in a small sealed box, arround .75ft^3, filled with about 10oz of polyfil. I am currently running it off of a US acoustics USX600D. The amp, according to them, is 250w X 1 @4 ohm, and 375w X1 @2ohm.

I dont know if this amp acutally puts out its rated watts, or how good the amp actually is. I have been toying with the idea of upgrading, but I dont know if its really worth it. I dont want to spend more than 150 bucks right now, and want clean signal to the sub. I know thats not much, but I have found some deals on Ebay... I was looking at the Infinity Reference series and the Alpine F series, but am not set on any amp, or upgrading at all. Lemme know what you think. thanks Matt [/QUOTE]
