What Amp??

Ok i have an alpin 12" type x and i am wondering what kind of amp i should get to power it

At first i was thinkin a Kenwood that runs 900w rms@ 2ohms

but some other ones i was lookin at are the boss gt that runs 1500w rms at 2 ohms

and maybe a pyle gear-x that runs 1800w rms @ 2 ohms

any suggestions as to what one would be the best?

or any other amps that are really good to run for this sub that are around $200

uhhh stay away from kenwood, dunno about the other amps you mentioned. but if you on a budget. go with hifonics, or power acoustik

never get pyle or boss anything, the kenwood is much better but still not that great. like he said i would go with hifonics or poweracoustik for cheap good power.

ok ive heard from a lot of ppl that i need to put about 1200w rms into my alpine type x (12") soo i need somethin thats affordable but has good rms wattage...so ive changed my mind to legacy, lanzar, or power acoustics....which one would be the best
