alright thanks, looking at a CX1200D... im not to familiar with american bass but tis supposed to be 1200RMS@1ohm, should it be pretty close to 1200 or a fair bit more? im looking to push 2 10" sound splinter RL-i's and i wanna make sure i dont feed them to much power, from what i have read they are good with 700ish RMS each (website says 500rms)

yeah i ran a 500.1 for last season and it was a solid amp, no issues with it other than me not being able to figure out its sweet spot lol. I ran .35 DAILY flawlessly. AB makes solid gear.

Cx1200d is supposed to have a 80 amp fuse. They will make about 1000 rms at 1 ohm
