There is a really realyl big differnece between a $200 and $300 amp.

Two of these http://ikesound.com/product-product_id/2214$220

http://ikesound.com/product-product_id/4368$230

The amp you really need http://www.edesignaudio.com/edv2/pro...products_id=44$365

With that sort of power requirement and VC config it is going to be very very hard to even give those subs half of thier RMS rating with an amp in that price range.



I agree with P, it's going to be hard to find that much real power for around $300.

U need 1400 of clean power ED is a nice amp but not liked for personal reasons id go on ebay and find a used US Amps or a RF BD1500 if u can find one(old model). Maybe even try MMATS might get some luck.

This amp will wrk for ya and ive seen it benched several times more then 1000@1ohmso u get ur power and its in ur range.

The problem is he has dual 2 ohm coils on the subs. He is going to run either 2.333, 0.5 or 4 ohm resistance and that amp only makes around 600 watts at 2 ohms delivering 300 watts per sub. The ED is underrated at 900 rms at 2 ohms so you are getting at least 450 watts rms per sub.

The real solution here is to buy two smaller 1 ohm stable amps, or get rid of one sub.

You need either two 750 watt @ 1 ohm stable amps, two 750 watt bridged @ 4 ohm amps (2 channels), or an amp that produces 1500 watts at 2 ohms. (I think your subs can be wired to like 2.34 ohms without running any calcs.)

If you want to keep your setup within budget, 2 Massive Audio P500.1's will work. I am dealer for them and they are good budget amps.
