I got two type r 12s. i need like 1200 watts. at one ohm i think this amp would push at least that. that is all i need. and the price is right

ok im looking at hifonics. i think i will go with them. i just need something that isnt going to blow up in a few months because its at 1 ohm. my buddy had the same setup as me and had a hifonics hfi 2000 d and it was very loud.

First let me say - I'm not a Boss/SSL fan at all. I'd only buy an amp of this level for experimentation or a 2nd car.

I think it's a big ol' load of stupid when people take turns bashing on an amp simply based on terrible ratings.

So the amp has terrible ratings. The industry has clearly decided that's a perfectly acceptable way to sell amps. It's up to the buyer to know that - or not know it and not care.

95% of the budget amps have terrible ratings.

Outside of the terrible ratings - is it a terrible amp? Probably not.

It's the same as the Boss AR3000d which is $130. Probably puts out 600-700w.

Not a terrible power/$ ratio by any standards.

People just have to understand COST vs PWR RATINGS vs REALITY.

POWER isn't free, and a LOT of it isn't cheap.

If you want 700w cheap, the SSL or Boss might be worth a shot, but coming from a Memphis 500 you probably need to up the budget a little bit if you want a true upgrade in power and/or quality.

if he is looking at a cheap amp to run his subs. does he even have the electrical to do 1000 watts plus

 

[n2audio 5,000+ posts]

If he has a car built in the last 20 yrs...Probably.

You wouldn't be able to crank out 0db test tones at stated 14v power, but a 1000-1500w system will perform just fine playing music on an average stock electrical system.

Although a burnt up alt every couple years can be expected.
