What Amp to get?
 
Ok so I am installing 2 Subs. Im going to install 2 Kicker 4-ohm 8" CompVR's. Im looking for an amp under $200. Any reccomandations?

I have 2 - 12's kicker comps running off an alpine mrp500 and they bang . That's in my civic tho.. For the frs I'm going with a more subtle 10" jl w6 running with an alpine pdx 1000 . Smaller amp and stackable !!

Well I do want to be able to run them at 200 OHMs. Or as close to that as possible.

Check 5 channel Kenwood x-700-5, 188$ eBay...
@ 4 ohms 4x40 + 1x300
@ 2 ohms 4x50 + 1x500

How good would this one be? Class D and would be able to run at 200 OHMs.

200 watts? the PDX-M6 is a great choice. very compact will give you 300 watts to each sub.

More expensive but you get what you pay for.

I'm gonna be running an entire system off of 1 PDX-V9 4x200w + 1x500w. Hertz mille 3 piece components + Shallow 12" Stereo Integrity MB mkIV SQ sub .5cu/ft sealed box (deletes spare tire) . Pioneer P99RS headunit to control everything.

He's confusing ohms with watts.

mashal 12-02-2012 09:26 PM
Why would he run compvrs with only 200? Those things run at like 800 rms

Im just gonna run them safe at 200. Im just going for added bass with more sq performance, not really just loud bust year ears out bass.

Alpine pdx's .. Small + stackable + stable + quiet = win
