new amp for 15 brahmas

[Bigrick31 10+ year member]

ive been looking at a few amps to power 2 15mk1 brahmas dual 2 ohm. probably gunna be in about 8^3ft box tuned 30 & 60hz. i was looking at some ma audio amps the 4000d is a little to much power i think. even if it is rated @17.7v 3600 seems to much. and i dont think the 3000d would be enough. what are your recomendations. $600 is probably around the max i would spend on the amp/s

i would go with a viper d2500.1 or a crossfire vr2000D

twin 1200d's would be close on the $600 tho

hmm 4000watts seems like it would be to much for the brahmas. leaning more twards something that does around 1500 for each sub. i woudl do the 3000d but its 3000watts @17.7v

any more recomendations?

i would say 2 orion 1200D or 2 viper d1200.1's. the vipers are pretty cheap at ikesound. or you could try to find 2 used pg tantrum 1200.1.

waht about an mtx 1501d?

1501d will only be pushing at around 700-800 watts a piece to the brahma's i was thinking about that idea also but instead i went to a single xxx, i would go with the viper 2500.1 if your looking to keep it under 600

those are only 2 ohm stable, unless you get a couple of those modded ones i've seen floating around the forum
