Hard amp to find specs with as its old school, but found what i need. it does

2000rms@2ohm @12.4v
2000rms@4ohm @12.4v
and can be internally modded by just changing the fuse to a 30amp fuse to do 2500rms@1 ohm.

You can find these dirt cheap on Ebay compared to what pretty much any store will charge you. I've thought of going to the L5's or L7's myself because of the deals you can find on Ebay. But, then I'd need a bigger amp, wiring, power, etc... and I'm just too lazy to do all that. lol!

But, I would seriously suggest looking at Ebay. I saw them selling pairs on there a few weeks ago when I looked for very cheap. Even with the shipping cost you still usually end up coming out way ahead.

Eh, as long as the seller has good feedback I wouldn't be real worried. I've ordered everything you can think of off Ebay and always gotten it. Even from sellers who've only sold a few things. I've ordered cards, subs, books, video games, cd's. Never had a problem. As long as the person has good feedback.

yeah maybe there my best bet, cause with free shipping and them using usps as appose to ups ill save on the crazy brokerage fee's ups likes to charge. Hopefully ill beable to figure out a nice ported box design for the 3 12's for the back of my 2dr jimmy. I was rocking 2 12" rockford p1's (beginner system) with a p2002 amp.....lol, so this summer i want something really,really loud and i think with the 3 12's,ported with there recommended rms should really slam.
