i have two 12 inch JL audio 12w0-4 subs and i need help on what amp i should get for them. i am a newbie to car audio.

they only handle 125 rms so i would recommend wiring them in parallel for a 2 ohm load and getting a 200 rms amp

here is a very nice amp at a cheap price that would have them subs slammin

sorry i took so long to respond....

the sites you gave me don't have much of a selection, i would recommend finding an amp on ebay or finding a better car audio site that ships to canada. If you would like i can look around for you, but i recommend getting a mono amp that has around a 200 rms @ 2 ohm rating.

that's a good amp at a reasonable price that will get the job done and to top it off they ship to canada!!!!

just set the gain at about 60% and you should be alright

also if you have any questions or want to know something i may be able to help you out just drop me an email decipha@cox.net ...no question is a dumb question
