New amp???

[BumpinBabe 10+ year member]

So I'm running two Pioneer Premier 12's with a Gm-6300F. The subs can handle up to 1000 watts max each, but the amp only pushes out 300. I'm pretty sure the subs are 4 ohm, which I was running them at before. The amp bridges out at 4 ohms for four speakers, and 8 ohm for two, therefore it is powering my subs at 8 ohms. This is inadequate so I have decided to invest in a new amp. The one I am looking at is the Pioneer Premier PRSD2000T. It runs at four ohms - 150 watts or at two ohms - 300 watts per channel for two channels. My question is - Can I safely power these subs with this amp? Is it safe to run them at two ohms if they are four? I want the biggest bump for my buck, but I don't want to blow those subs. Is this a good investment or should I keep looking. Also, if anyone wants to buy the GM-6300F, I will let it go for $150. It's a good amp if you want to power four speakers, or two subs with a lower power requirement.

You will need to find an amp that matches up with your subs rms not max, also if your subs are both svc 4ohm you will need a 2 channel amp that will do 4ohm per channel, or a mono amp that does 2ohms

Ha...my subs are the exact one you have in your pic. Glad you answered then. What do you use?

The reason I'm having this dilemma in the first place in because I blew the amp I had for three years by turning up the bass on my ipod equalizer.

How about the PRS-D2000T? It's a 1200W amp with a 4ohm 2X150 capacity. I'm still hung up on the wattage. I really want those things to thump like they used to. I'm pissed at the guys at the audio shop for recommending the amp I have now. I'm not so great at choosing componenets on my own....but once I have them I can install them like hell! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Get the PRS-D3000SPL, D4000SPL, or the D5000SPL. Each of those is good, the more the merrier. If you get one of those, you'll have room to expand to 2 more subs, if you ever want to.

I don't think you have the same subs as in my avatar. But if you do I only have one thats a 3002spl running off a profile cl1200 at 4ohm bridged. Pushes it well.
