OP, with your budget, you can afford pretty much any respectable 2k amp, I'd say grab an AQ2200, i've only heard great things about them, and I saw a thread a while back testing the AQ vs the DC2.0 and the AQ put out a hundred or so watts than the 2.0.

Not saying the DC2.0 is a bad amp, just saying for what you're doing (14.4v charging/ >1ohm impedance) you won't notice a difference between the two and the AQ is cheaper.

For under 700 bucks you can get a used saz3500 that will just smash a dc2.0.. Not even a close call on that one - http://www.caraudio.com/forums/amplifier-classifieds/531193-sundown-saz-3500d-toolmaker-daul-inputs-3-weeks-old-beyond-mint-condition.html

Sorry to keep mentioning Audioque, but an AQ3500 is ~$850 and it does 4300 @ 1ohm

im thinking about just waiting and saving up for a T1500 or T2500, which would be better for my subs?

not really ,the efficiency isn't that great on the fosgate amps.the saz and dc amps are better efficiency ratings than most amps .and by the way my dc 2.0 is brand new in the box with a full 1 year warranty.

With that kind of cash, I'd sell those subs, and get better drivers, and still have $ for a nice amp.

And I'd skip on that dc amp. Those are STUPID overpriced. I mean.....really??? Over $500 for a 2kw amp? The sundown saz were less when they were in production.....just ****** dumb.

Maybe look around for a dd m3 or m2a to add to the list. Personally, I'd get an m2a if I had that much $.
