Top brands for amps

600 watts at 2 ohm, and if he ever decided to change coil configs, gain power into a 1 ohm.

I corrected myself when i said superior, but i will say this. Ive owned memphis amps also, and they are great, but the pg seems to be the best bet for turnstyle, since hes only looking for 3-600watts. Not to mention he can change his subs, and not have to worry about changing the amp out since the xenon delivers full power at 1-4 ohms.

Zed Audio has a nice 600w RMS amp. http://www.zedaudio.com

PS: Stephen Mantz (Zed Audio) is the designer behind many of the highly regarded "old school" amps (old Lanzar Opti's, old school Hifonics, ESX, Rodek, etc etc)

phoenix gold is top quality. They have been making amps longer than most companies have even existed. Although they make great subs they are mostly known for their amps, which are very high quality. And if anything ever happends to your amp pg will take care of you, even if you live in canada. Even if you didnt buy your amp from an authorized dealer, pg will still take care of you. Product service is great if you shall ever need it. The amp will run all day long, and be cool to the touch. It also has a nice blue glow to it. May I ask what subs are you going to be using.
Pg double checks every amp before leaving the facility, so its highly unlikely to get an defective product, unless you buy it used.

on the site it said it the warranty is void if u buy online from non authorized dealers...and i really want to get oz audio matrix elites..just dont know where to get them...if nething ill get a jlw3 for now..

im probably going to get the pg 600.1 on http://www.etronics.com they have sumthin for canadian buyers...i think all that customs border situation is handled for me so i dont have any hidden fees over the border...hope this is true..

and is etronics trustworthy??

true, but actually doesn't mean the PG is the best amp available, for the dollar.

Most manufactures will void warranty if bought un-authorized...buyer beware...find a good one, that will ship for you...there are plenty out there. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

It says on the website that they will void the warranty, but ive known plenty of people buy used stuff online that had problems, and they sent it off to pg, and pg fixed it. Dont worry they will fix it with no warranty. Countless numbers of people have done it that I know.

I never said the pg amp is the best for the dollar, I just simply said its the best choice in that group for what hes doing.

Etronics are very trust worthy. I bought some kappas from them a few years ago.

then we'll have to end with 'agree to disagree'...IMHO

hey thanks mackenzie....what would u think would be the best sub for this amp

i care bout sq..and nice spl...but more on the sq side

 

[Polecat 5,000+ posts]

depends on space...if you want good SQ, look for a driver that is a DVC 4, and prefers a sealed application.

just going one 12"...i just want a sub worth the money

 

[Polecat 5,000+ posts]

JL would be a great choice..

Ive got a 12 in mind that would go great with your amp, but I hope you have some decent mids, because this sub goes very very very low, and lacks a tad in the upper bass region, but its one of the best sq subs ive ever heard. this sub will play a 20 hertz note very loudly. Its incredible how low this goes, and sounds great. And since its a xenon sub it will match your xenon amp. Cant go wrong with it, the amp was practially made for the sub.
