What type of power for my setup?

[758675]

Hey there guys.

I just recently upgraded my system to 2 12" 12w6v2s in a ported box being ran by the new pioneer 960MP headunit and being fueled by the Hifonics BX1000 amp. I'm running the setup at 1 ohm 1000 watts.

I'm starting to think I need a bigger amp. I'm looking into the JL 1000/1, Kicker SX1250.1, Diamond Audio D61500.1, or the Memphis MCD1500.1. Out of these amps, what would be the best bet to run these JL W6V2s to their fullest? Would there be another amp that would be a better bet?

Thanks for the input!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

The kicker or get a diamond D61000.1/D5 1200.1 the 1500.1 is too much power for those subs imo

I second the D6 1000.1, Just use a cleaner amp and your W6s will come alive.

Thanks for the input guys!

So are you saying that Diamond Audio would be a better bet than the JL 1000/1? All the local stereo shops and some other internet sites swear by the JL 1000/1, but if I can get a better performing amp at a better price, I'm all for it!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
