Looking for a amp to power 2 12' subs but I don't know much about audio equipment at all? I know the basics but is Lanzar, MA Audio, Powerbass, Power acoustic any good? I want a amp that can power 2 subs and 2 speakers but i'll need a lot of power so I was thinking a 1000-2000W amp. Which one should i get?
figure out what subs and speakers you want first. MA subs are decent but forget the rest, check out WoofersEtc.com - The Online Car Audio Super Store, The largest selection at the lowest prices! Image Dynamics Authorized Internet Dealer!, Ground Shaker, roof mount monitors, car monitor, car video, flip down monitor, mtx jackhammer, Eclipse, Eclipse for some ideas.
i was always told to buy the best you can afford.so go find some good name brands online then choose the best one you can buy.also dont forget to get a good quality install kit. edit: kit!! not fit
I was thinking a 2-Alphasonik PSW812, or 2-Alpine SWR-1242D, or 2 Eclipse SW700, or 2 Rockford Fosgate P312D4. Unless somebody can tell me the best subs to get for a maximum price of about $180 a sub. But I do want 12's in it. And if you could also tell me what kind of box to get, are the bandpass boxes any good or should I just go with a basic ported or sealed box?
Ported...if you want a bandpass box than you will have to have one custom built to your subs. Alphasonik sucks balls...they are owned by Audiobahn I think...crappy subs. I would look at amp first then subs
Ya, Alphasonik is owned by Audiobahn. No very good quality. Are you wanting more ofa SQ or SPL setup? What kind of car do you have? Do you plan on upgrading charging system?
i dont know about that.this guys system rocks.and its all alpha.i've heard it in person. low quality pic 014.jpg - 2005 pontiac GA 2nd go round
that looks like the higher end Alpha...those aren't bad. Prolly has the same board as many other amps and crap same as audiobahn...audiobahn sucks balls but their highest line that is not worth the money aint such a bad product...just the price to quality ratio isn't too good
ok then......how about those zed amps i mentioned to willy? the mono amp puts out over 600wattsx1 from......11 to 14.4.thats right 11!volts
prolly puts out a lot more at 14 volts also. like the Nine.1 amps can put out 1200 watts at 12.5 volts and most people have gotten around 1500 watts or more above 14 volts i thnk
I have a 2000 pontiac grand prix gt and I don't want to change the charging system, I just want a system where I can spend at the most $180 for each sub and $200 or less for a amp. I really don't have any idea what to get. I was looking at some punch 3's or eclipse SW7200's.
no.it's a regulated power supply.i read the review on the 2ch gladious.puts out the same power at all voltages. it does however put out more than rated power.wich is a good thing
if i were to ever think of replaceing my amps i would seriously consider those ZED'S.same power with the car off or on. my old school hifonics vulcan is like that,but it got in trouble one day.i was playing my tunes at the beach one day and my voltage dropped so low my truck wouldnt start. but that amp keeped playing.^_^ i got a volt meter the next day.:lol:
Anything can get loud and look pretty, but needs to sound pretty too Alphasonik gets decently loud, but I don't care for the SQ of the products. I know a few guys with Team db unit as well, great bunch of guys and we had fun this past weekend Kevin
Already made up my mind and bought a hifonics bxi1206d, people say its an awesome amp so ill see how it works, plenty of power to the 2 eclipse im going to get.
