[QUOTE="smms25, post: 6570603, member: 605971"] Hey guys, I'm fairly ignorant when it comes to car audio, so I would prefer to stay with one of the larger brand names. What I plan to do is run 1 12" subwoofer (a DVC - possibly a JL W3 or less ; or a RF P1 or P2, somewhere around there) I'm looking for a decent mono block amp(somewhere around 500 watts at 2 ohms or 300+ at 4 ohms) to power the sub. Not looking for something that will rattle my car to pieces, just add a little umph to the stock speakers in my 08 mazda (does have pioneer AVH-p4000 deck) Amps I am considering: 1) Alpine MRP-M500 2) Rockford Fosgate R500.1 3) Kenwood KAC-8104D Which of these would be my best choice (or none of them- and please state a better alternative) I can get any of these amps from 100-125 new so lets say that would be my budget. Thanks for the help [/QUOTE]
