When buying an amp.....

[subsfanatic]

..what should i look for? is it the power rating? e.g 125 x2 or is it the max power e.g 800 watt. i'm totally clueless on this and would appreciate your advice.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Also (if you don't mind) what amp would you reccommend to run a 600 rms alpine sub? any suggestion? i have about 200 dollars to spend:greedy:

Never look at "MAX"

A good rule of thumb for an amp is "you get what you pay for"

But, that being said.. there are some good deals out there still.

At what impedance do you need to run the 600rms sub? 4, 2, 1?

This is prolly the most important thing to consider.

This would be perfect, as long as the sub is D4. Less than $200, too. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

my entire system is used, and who would buy a new amp sub... when yo can get them for 1/2 the price right here from good reliable sellers. OH you must have more money than brains. And not always do you get what you pay for. Read some of these threads and see what people think of various products, not always is the most expensive the best.
