I'm kinda a new to subs and amps my sister gave me a Diamond D9 12" 800 RMS DVC for my birthday because I told her I was looking for a new sub. But the Amp I have is a realy cheap one and because I have to wire the sub in series I can only get maybe 100 Watts to the sub right now if that.

I'm looking for a new amp soon or when spring comes and sugesstions?

Thanks !

is it a dual 4 ohm, or a dual 2 ohm?
how much aae you willing to spend?
once you answer that it'll help narrow done the choices

Scottie

they are daul 4 ohms VC's I'm not sure how much I will be able to spend as little as possible.

|Just wondering if there is a place to buy a amp for them the only place around me is Futureshop or places that want alot of money for stuff.

Ideally you will want an amp that will do 800wrms @1ohm. Check the for sale threads some really good used gear, also some new stuff as well. As well there are a few vendors on here that will take care of you if you get ahold of them. Check the vendors section. I have an amp for sale, but it is nowhere near what you need.

Not to be a nitpicker, but a dual 4ohm driver gets ya 2 or 8ohms......

To the OP, any amp stable into a mono 2ohm load from 200 to ~1,00watts will work fine with your sub....I'm guessing you are just starting to add stuff to your car and if you still have the stock deck and speakers you won't need a lot of power to add some bass to it.

The used equipment for sale in this thread, in particular the RF amp, would be a good starting point for you.

That is a nice sub, please don't try and cheap your way thru hooking it up.....you won't be happy with the results long-term......

I Just need one that will do 2ohms in mono mode if I run the sub in parrel.

Like I said in the reply above, the RF sub amp in that FS thread would be a great starting point for you.

Scottie

yeah that would work but you live 2 hours from me
