This amp with these subs?

[snipe523 10+ year member]

I'm currently looking at getting two Sundown SD-2 8 D4's to put in my truck. Now I have been looking at an amp to match up with these. I've kind of gravitated toward the Sundown SAE-600D. Will this be enough for these subs? I know the power numbers match up spec wise but I've heard these subs can take more than their rated rms.

Get a 1000

99% of legit subwoofers can handle considerably more than they are rated for. But, only if it's "clean" power. I agree with Mylows, i'd do a 1000 on them.

You can get a b-stock sae-1000d for $231

I'd go with the 1500 personally. You can get b-stock pretty cheap, and you can have some headroom for upgrades in the future. http://www.caraudiobargain.com/b-stock-sundown-audio-scv-1500d/

I didn't want to spend much on an amp and didnt need much power. I wasted alot of money in the long run trying to be cheap. I went thru 3 amps before I decided to get my vfl120.1, never planned on needing more than 1k rms but wanted the headroom. Glad I did since plans changed and I'm running more power.
