trying to put a substage together

[jag8731]

hey im trying to figure out what my best option would be for a substage. Its a 1999 Honda Accord Coupe, so far I have a Dual XDMA7715 head unit and two audiobahn AW1251T 12" subwoofers. I was just planning on getting a new amp for the subs, but i wanted to see what your input was with my budget; 300 dollars. For right now i just want to do a substage and im looking for sql.

Those are 4 ohm DVC subs, so you'll need an amp that can deliver 800w x 1 @ 1 ohm, or 400w x 2 @ 2 ohms.

Kicker zx850.2 can be had on ebay for about 300 shipped.

Soundstream PCA1000D says it can do 1000w RMS @ 1 ohm, also about 300 shipped on ebay.

I don't want to be rude but try some new subs and or HU. I presonally would sell everything and start over.

2 Profile 400MSX amps (300w RMS @ 2 ohms apiece)

Found here

$49 apiece, so ~$120 shipped

2 MTX T5512-44 12" Dual 4 ohm subs

Found here

$100 apiece, so ~$250 shipped

or

2 Kicker CVR 12" dual 4 ohm

Found here

$80 apiece, so ~$180 shipped

Either should pound, and not cost an arm and a leg.

Don't use the term "substage".
