Booming - I've got a buddy that lives in Sanford with a US Amps XTerminator amp for sale that may be in your price range. Rated 1500 watts at 1 ohm. Think he'd take $125 for it.

You do realize that the gain knob can be used to turn it down to less than full power, right? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

false gain knob is not a power knob. It's used to match voltage on the input. Gain manipulates the input signal. It's a pre amp function. Volume would be a faded.

 
sold my hp and a 3.6 cf dual ported box I had for years (used to have both hp's in there for those of u saying I aint never been loud they were destroying my car is y I went to 1 sub).. I am looking at $190 earthquake dbxi something 27 mm xmax 500rms, 5yr warranty., I like the $119 SQ 212 and would have ordered it but d4 are out of stock., American bass xs $95or xfl $189 I like them but I've seen made in china on magnets (I guess just bothers me because of the name) .. I know peeps will yell but also looking at $119 skar vvx v2 d4 18mm xmax (sq, pioneer pro, ab others have less xmax or smaller vc some even cost more w/ less xmax kicker comp R don't even list it that I could find) some of these should work well in my box *** the CAB should.. now power if I buy cheap sub $129 or less I could buy a cheap but better amp if I must but I'd like to work with what I got now also I don't want 1200 rms I'm keeping 4ga wire so at most like a real 600rms amp maybe I would do if I get sub that works in my 1.8cf ad box for (at least for few months maybe) or get low cost sub and better box., that pioneer 600rms, 2.5" vc rated #1 and have over a 100 almost 5star reviews just on 2 sites looks pretty good for $70 ebay.. also I looked at db and mms ratings on all and everyone said cab and sq need more power but than I have, but mms on cab is 187 about 86db that sound "lighter" than the hp I had which was like 226mms.. anyone know xmax on cab? CAB-12

I think you are trying to use the xmax like a rms rating for comparing subs. like los said just because one has a higher xmax that doesnt mean it will do it.

as for the cab subs there are 2 of them. los is talking about the ultra one for 219 bucks. i think the one you are talking about is the cheaper one for 149 dollars. the cheaper one does have a bigger coil at 3 inches versus 2.5 for the cab ultra. the ultra weighs 10 pounds more though. for all the subs you mentioned i would either go with the sq one, maybe wait for it to come off backorder, or get the cab ultra. i know its 70 dollars more then you wanted to spend but its based of sundowns design, and its a step up from their sa line. the reguler cab one will work as well though, it is rated at 1000 rms compared to 750 rms for the ultra. but i think the ultra will do 2k rms easy imo. u really cant go wrong with the sq or cab really. just stop comparing subs on xmax lol hope that helps. gl

You do realize You don't have set the gain all the way up right? I'd rather have a 1-1.5k amp an have headroom then a smaller amp with no headroom an stress it out.

Your car can run these amps because you won't have to have the gain all the way up.

 
S.hit i answered your question on page one, then realized there was 4 more pages lol. if i repeated what someone else already said my bad, didnt see all the pages
IT'S COOL I was a long day of shopping and typing lol.. see I wanted sq 212 they say it sounds bad (and that from the guy that has 2-8" 312's with like 3k watts to them) they all say sundown E cause I don't have 800rms., bascily they agreed I may as well get the pioneer champ pro if I'm gonna go no more than 600rms cause I don't want electrical problems.. i even looked at idea of 2 cheap 10's maybe even sealed..I was ready to get American bass xd/xs may need large box for it though but man pioneer may not be the in thing but they like 300 4.8 star (average) reviews on just 2 sites and it placed 1st in top 10 subs sundown e was 10th.. I'm still confused
