What monoblock should I get that does 1000w RMS @ 2ohm?

I originally bought a PPI BK1800.1D from SonicElectronix for $190, but they shipped me a defective product, made me pay return shipping, and then tell me they can't ship me a new one because it has been discontinued... Very disappointed in Sonic right now.

I'll be powering an Alpine SWR-12D4 in a 2.5cu ft ported box tuned to 34Hz. The amp needs to do 1000w @ 2ohms.

Would the Belva BB5000D be a good choice for $270? About $270 is my budget.

I have 1/0 gauge power wires running to my trunk, so I need an amp that has 1/0 gauge inputs. I'll be powering an Alpine SWR-12D4 in a 2.5cu ft ported box tuned to 34Hz.

We have a CDT SQA 1000 mono amp for your exact budget of $270. You can be confident that this amp is extremely reliable. It is a solid amp that puts out solid power. Most importantly it will last.

Q1-1200D Amplifier

best bang for your buck i believe

edit: I SEEN YOU NEED 2OHM SORRY

its going be to hard to find a 1000-1200 watt amp that has 1/0g inputs because you simply dont need 1/0 for 1000 watts lol. So you may have to trim your wire down some

I guess I could just bend back some of the wire strands until it fits, and wrap tape around the bent strands.

yeah or bend it back and cut it. i've had to do it with my 1/0 sky high wire and my amp had 1/0 inputs. Just really big wire.

JBL GTO1001EZ or any amp that does 2K at 1 ohm generally will do 1K at 2 ohms. We can offer DB Drive as well as JBL.

What are your guys' thoughts on the Belva BB3000D? I can get it for $150.

I found the JBL GTO 1001 on Amazon for $222: http://www.amazon.com/JBL-GTO-1001-1000-Watt-Subwoofer/dp/B007A1RQ8Q

Here's a DB DRIVE A7M 2000.1 for $248: http://www.ebay.com/itm/DB-DRIVE-A7M-2000-1-CLASS-D-MONOBLOCK-2000-WATTS-CAR-AMPLIFIER-BRAND-NEW-/141311195893?pt=Car_Amplifiers&hash=item20e6cdbaf5

@2Ω I'd go with a Kicker CX1200.1. all the ones that I've installed have birth sheets of 1400+@2Ω
