Something to power 2 apline type r's

[bfish942]

Right now I have 2 alpine type R's and a hifonics zeus 1300w amp, and I want something that will power them better. What can I get that can power them to the fullest? Hopefully something I can find on ebay or used somewhere.

budget? and D4 or D2 coils?

my memphis 16-mc1500d would power them well.

btw they are the 4 ohm not 2 ohm type r's

AP18001d

MB quart dsc 1500, AP1500 or 1800 if you're on a budget if not a Sundown 1500 saz

Will there be a huge difference between a AP18001d and the one I have now, if so how big is the difference between the AP18001d and the sundown 1500

Are they 1242d or 1243d subs?

 

[bfish942]

not sure I'd have to check when I get home I'm away at college right now

I just remember it's dual 4 ohm

the Sundown probably puts out close to the same power as that Ap 1800, not that the aps don't make rated but usually sundown's are underrated. Using one of those is about the most power you want to throw at a pair of type Rs unless you're not worrying about frying them

Just look for amp that is minimum of 1200rms at either 4ohm or 1 ohm, with low THD.

I have 2 1242d's running of a Orion 2500d at 4ohms works very well and when I do upgrade subs I'll have power to run them //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Right now I have a Hifonics ZXi 1308

The AP1800D is pretty cheap will it be an upgrade? If so I'll definately get it

Yes it will be a upgrade. Make sure your electrical is up to snuff.. The saz-1500d is a much ncier amp (more expensive as well) and will put out moree power than the ap1800d. They are very underrated

Look at specs of both and compare, the audiopipe will be much better
