First off, peak means pretty much nothing. Are those subs 1000w RMS each, or total?

They are 1000 a peice.

Do you have a price range, that would make it easier to recommend an amp.

there 2ohm & there a 1000rms a piece....far as price go .....i'll probably would say no more than $600 but if u know something thats a lil cheaper & really good....i'll go with it, but umm!!!..... to vetkilr i went to this audio shop yesterday & this guy ask me what amp i was gonna use to push all 3 subs....so i threw a couple of ideals of which amp i was looking at.....i told him the kicker 2500.1 & the power house 5000.1......he point out some shit i never seen before or heard of till yeasterday when he show me....but im not gonna down the amp but i just never heard of it.....it was a.... HVX 3000D 4000 WATTS MAX POWER (.667 OHM CAPABLE) by hollywood digital....then i asked him is it better than the kicker 2500.1 & the power house 5000.1..... he told me yea ....matter of fact he said (way better) so if anybody know anything about this amp please let me know is that true and 1 more thing....he try to charge me $500 for the **** amp when i seen the same exact 1 on ebay for $260 something dollars....i had to do my research when i got home to see how much this **** thing really cost....oh yea 1 more thing....vetkilr....u still have that rfr3112.....if so let me know what u want for it .....cause he told me that i can fit 4 in my car if i woulda known that i woulda bought all 4 from that guy....but somebody please do the research for me & let me know is that really true about what the guy was saying..... i would really appreaciate it ....like i said b4 im new to this car audio stuff

oh yea i dont know if this will make a difference...but i got put a bigger alt in my car to .....and i was gonna go with a 200volt & he said something bout the alt is gonna put out 14.4v something like that & thats why that amp is so good (the hollywood) ....oh yea he said u wont find too many amps that put out 14.4v at 1000 rms @2ohms or 3000rms @2ohms.....something like that

He probalby said you wont find too many amps that put out 3000w RMS at 14.4v

Anyways, theres a plethera of options

Orion 2500D

IA 20.1

Autotek 4000.1

MA Audio HK4000D

And if you look hard enough, you can find a fosgate power used for around your price range, it'll be hard ot find though. But they do have a 3000w @ 1ohm fosgate power that would push them well, will give more than 3000w in reality though

Yep still have the other HX 2 ............paid 160 sell it for the same thing since your local.

And never heard of that amp he's talkin bout but the kx 2500.1 is a killer amp no doubt.

i wouldnt trust the hollywood digital.....ive heard o a brand liek that but it was a flea market low end crap brand..........perhaps im wrongand it'snot a crap brand.....but oen thing IS for SURE.....if that shop has too many of those amps or needs to get rid of these hollywood digitals, it wont matter if it's better or worse, they'll tell you whatever u wanna hear in order to get yout o buy that amp..and thats a fact my friend....
