Ok guys I have a 1998 Gt with the mach 460 sound system and I am gonna add 2 12" audiobahn subs here are the specs for them....

550 RMS max
single 2" 4 ohm voice coils

I already own the subs but I am looking for an amp to finish it off. I was thinking along the lines of a rockford fosgate 1001BD amp which is 1000 watts RMS. I want to be able to push the subs to the max. I dont care if I have to run it mono to do it either. HEre are the specs of the 1001BD amp...500 watts RMS x 1 at 4 ohms
1000 watts RMS x 1 at 2 ohms.

IS there anyway I can run my subs down to 2 ohms? I dont know much about amp selection so I need you guys help. If thats not a good amp just name one for me please. I would like to go no more than $500 for an amp.

EDIT: I forgot to mention that I do have a LOGIC sound lab 1600watt amp that I used to run the subs off before. Do you think I can buy another one of those and run them so that I run one sub off each amp? Here is a link to this amp specs http://www.bacchusaudio.com/pd_logic...bs_lsx2800.cfm

I got the logic soundlab 1600 watt amp for only $100 bucks and feel in love with it. I wanna add another one of these amps so that I can run one amp per sub. How do you bridge amps?

ok here u go,

so what u do is connect the two power outputs of two chanels into one, so i am thinking you take 2 y style rca cables connect 1 of them up to the negatives of the (4channel) amp then to the neg of the sub then do the same thing for the pos.
anyone wanna correct me on this?
well any ways this is a good site to go to http://www.crutchfieldadvisor.com/le...tall_tips.html

also you will have to stop the vibrations in the carpet over your rear deck speakers

First of all sorry to hear your going with audiobahn's "No Offense", i think the best amp to get would be a Directed 1500D, powerful, will last you a long time, and not expensive. I have 2 for my subs and then a 4 channel for my speakers and have never had a single problem.

i have those exact same audiobahn subs and im running a sony amp that is 1000x1@2ohms and i have one of the loudest systems around itr hits hard, i was looking to sell it and buy a new audiobahn one, it all depends on what your looking for go on ebay and look up , clarion , kicker , old rockford fosgate(not new ones) and ya you might wanna purchase dynamat.

Check out amps @ this site... I've found it to be good brands for good prices (plus they pricematch I think)

Power Acoustik are pretty nice... a lot of power for a good price
