Power Acoustik makes good brands. I have been researcing the MA Audio amps also here on E-bay. They are decent amps and easy on the pocket.

 

Power Acoustik is junk. I went through 4 pairs of their subwoofers before I relized they had a 3 month break in period, before I could drive them even 3/4 their total output. I would expect the same quality from all their products.

Use the ratio guide. $1 per watt is an excellent amp. That amp your looking at is about $1 per 100 watts. This Orion one is $1 per 2 watts. You'll see some amps out there like McIntosh for example where you'll be paying $4 per watt. but try and stick to .50 - $1.00 (or greater) per watt.

 

what is the impedence(2ohm, 4 ohm)and VC configeration(single or dual) of your subs. We need that to match up an amp.

 

its dual voice coil and it says (4 and the ohm symbol + 4 and the ohm symbol)
