Default I've looked around online, someone with knowledge please help

Okay, so tonight I realized that my dad had 2 of these sitting wired into our motorcycle trailer's sound system. Since we only use the trailer for storing stuff since we sold the things, my dad said I could have them. Anyways, I can't take either of the amps because the other stuff is still wired into them and I need to find a good amp that will support both of them. I've tried to learn all the terms and whatnot, but its confusing and I'm still trying to learn. Anyways, what would be a good amp for 2 of these for around 200ish bucks?



Also, forgot to say, I'm using a Pioneer P8000BT head unit.
Thanks,
Robbie

If the 2 subs are 4 ohms then do a mono block amp. Really you dont need a huge amp just something that will give you 200 RMS at 2 ohms. Just check out your local audio shop for some amps. Alpine has a mono block amp for 200.00, rockford will be a little more money around 250 (p330.1).

Just let them know when you go looking for an amp at your local shop: 2- 4ohm subs, that can handle 100 watts rms each. Andyou wanta mono block amp that can handle a 2 ohm load.

if you're looking to get something on the cheap like you say; then yes; that kenwood will do just fine.

please remember; you get what you pay for in car audio.....if it says its 4000watts and it's 40 bucks; prob. not worth it...not saying that kenwood amp is garbage; that's just some advice....

Just to be sure, because I may order it, it will support both of them with a good bass?

Default RE: I'

i'd match it with a rockford amp...go on ebay definitely find better deals and you wont need a big amp only about 300W and that'll be plenty... go mono amp and 4 ohms
