Which amp to go with a SA-12?

[Zachary Lee]

Hey guys, i've been browsing the forums for a while and cant seem to figure out what type of amp everyone uses for a single SA-12. All i know is that the sub really loves power. I really hope you guys can help me out so i can purchase my whole set up soon.

Vehicle? Do you have a enclosure already? Electrical upgrades? Budget?

Its an 04 civic sedan, and im planning to do the big 3 the same time I install everything.

I still need to buy an enclosure, but my budget is $175-250.

Right now im kind of looking at a hifonics BRZ1200.1D, hifonics HFi1000.1d, and a MB quart onx1.1000d.

These were all amps ive seen other people recommend on the forums but wasnt sure if they'd match up with a single SA-12.

Also looking for suggestions on ported boxes!

thank you

the sax1200 was their worst model. issues with it versus the SAZ and SAE. and why does it have to be sundown? really?

the BRZ will do okay, Alpine MRP 1000, onx is okay, AQ 1200, DC 1.2k, anything around the 1000 watts at 1 or 2 ohm will suffice.
