[QUOTE="thewoahna, post: 36101, member: 543435"] I have done much cearching over the weekend and have limited my choices. I know that I want a JBL 600.1 Amp. Now the Subs are what I still am not sure about. I am stuck between a pair of Shivas, a pair of 12" Alpine Type R's, or a pair of JL 12w3's. I just have a couple more questions... 1) From what I understand, the Shivas are 300 watts RMS. With these subs being 8 Ohm DVC, can I run them at 2 Ohms? 2) If I am to get Type R's I am going to have to run them at 1 Ohm (they are 4 Ohm DVC subs). I am afraid that this will not be as healthy for my amp. Will the JBL 600.1 amp be OK running a 1 Ohm load during my 3 hours of driving a do per day? 3) I currently have a Jensen 600 watt amp (2x200 RMS at 4 Ohm Bridged) running a pair of American Bass XL-10 (150 RMS each) subs, in a ported box. Which pair of subs on this JBL 600.1 amp would best destroy the setup I currently have when put in a sealed box (between 1.2 - 1.5 air space)? Thanks for your help! [/QUOTE]
