Want to look for around 500rms at 2 ohms for that box

my suggestion is the jbl 600.1. that should be plenty of power for those, its usually around 200USD

There is a guy on www.revscene.net selling a JBL Bp600.1 for $300 obo if you want some info on it. Need to be a registered member to view the ads there.

Krelkor,

So, if I plug the 2 subs to that amp, I'll be fine ??? The subs are around 600W each at 2ohm !!!

Would that force the amp ???

I'm sorry for so much questions, but I don't know that stuff !!!

From the specs you posted (from the link).

the whole box gives a 2ohm load and is rated for 600rms watts. (so I would presume there is only 1 Neg and 1 Pos wire coming out of that box...

So u need a 1 channel amp or a 2 channel bridged amp, (that will be able to go down to 2 ohms (not many do...only the more expensive higher quality ones)

Check out JL audio's site, as they have a schematic's areas on their site which showes you how to wire subs to give you specific ohm ratings, using different rated subs..etc..

Each speaker is 600w, 2ohm and they got there own connections.

Out of those brands, I would suggest 2 of the MTX6500Ds... :D

Other options include Orion 1200D, USA-1000X, or if you can find someone willing to sell a PPI-PC21400.... [img]graemlins/bow.gif[/img] :D
