well ikesound doesn't have n e more viper 1200.1's left //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crying.gif.ec0ebefe590df0251476573bc49e46d8.gif so i need to find a new amp im going to push it at either a 2 or 4 ohm load (most likely 4 ohms) and my price range is about 100-200 bucks, n e seggestions

o and im looking for about 300-400 RMS (or more if nessessary)

and 1 more question is it n e different to wire something down to 2 ohms instead of 4 ohms (other than the power difference)

I have a planet audio PA-2250D that will do its rated power of 2250w @ 1 ohm, 1200w @ 4 I believe. It might be more power than you need right now, but you always have room to upgrade later; and for $215 shipped you cant beat it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

And the only difference between the two wiring options is that 2 is a lower impedance (less resistance in the circuit), no audible difference if its the same power output.

What is the voice coil configuration and the rated power for your sub(s)?

Ok then you need an amp that will put out at least 500 watts at 2 ohms

 

[4runnercrazy 10+ year member]

pretty much

 

[4runnercrazy 10+ year member]
