What is the best amp I can get for the Sundown SA 12 for around 200?

I am getting 1 Sundown SA 12 inch sub and need the best monoblock amp I can get for it within my budget. It has 2 ohm dual voice coil's so I need one that powers 600-700 at 1 ohm preferably. I can spend roughly 200, a little more if necessary. Thanks!

750 at 1 ohm wouldn't be too hard on a 600 rms sub?

Not on the SA 12 ^ But of course just avoid clipping etc.

What's wrong with that amp? I have a 4 channel 300 prime powering my speakers and I love it.

Ah, you beat me to it. I also agree on that amp, its not good for the price.

all you are paying for is the name not the quality,because in that amp there is none.

What's a better amp manufacturer I should be looking at?

 

[ckunke002 10+ year member]

Okay, all I'm saying is that I have a different version of the same line of amps and I like it a lot, it works great for me. Do you have another amp that you could suggest instead?

From what I hear these put out rated, plus its a lot cheaper. Obviously not the BEST amp out there exactly, but for the price its good.

Run this at 1 or 4 ohms. If you run 1 ohm turn the gain down. .04% THD at rated power. Efficient, and sounds fantastic.

It doesn't mention that it can power 1 ohm loads, and it says 25 watts at 4 ohms? A little confused lol
