Do you have a budget for your new amp?

the SE's are dual 4 ohm, so you would want an amp that does 600 watts @ 2 ohms.

are you wanting to buy from a local store or online? are you concerned about warranty issues? would you prefer a canadian site?

So, lets figure out exactly what the vc configuration of your sub is so that we can choose the right amp.

Autotek 333 Bts

AUTOTEK 333 BTS is the most powerful of the ones you listed, we need to know an OHM load. My 333 is on ebay now. The PG is a nice amp also, just make sure you get the linedriver if you buy that amp, without the linedriver the amp will not play to its full potential

hmm. basically i bought it local, online . aside from being an SE all he said was its dual 4 ohm voice coils. How would I know if the PG has a line driver or is it an aftermarket add in? thank you guys for all the help, sorry for sounding like a noob, but i figure its easier to ask then to buy the wrong thing. oh as far as buying with a warrenty it would be nice but the rest of the system is being peiced together so i'm not as worrried about it. I figure the amp is a very key component as to how this part of my system will work so I better choose wisely.
