[QUOTE="c_hayhurst, post: 2189091, member: 555043"] I need a new amp to power my subwoofer. I have a $200 gift card from Best Buy, so I'm going to buy an amp from them. The subwoofer is a 12" Resonant Engineering SE Model, with 700W RMS. It's a dual voice coil, stable to 2 Ohms. The sub is in a ported box, made to the manufacturer's specs. The most powerful amps that Best Buy carries are the Alpine MRP-M650, which provides 600Wx1 at 2 Ohms, and the Infinity Reference 611a, which provides 657Wx1 at 2 Ohms. I cannot find any reviews for either amp. Which one would you suggest I get? I believe I could get a higher-powered amp which exceeds the 700W RMS rating for the sub; is that a good idea if I plan on keeping my current sub? [/QUOTE]
