Lost as to which Amp to get!
So ive recently picked up a MTX MZS1204, the person I bought it off said I should run it off a 150w amp. However when I look up the specifications of the Sub, they are...
150-300 nominal rms at 4 ohm
600rms Max at 4 ohm
So im lost as to what sub to get .. do I listen to him and get 150w amp, or 300w? Any suggestions would help.
Plus im looking for a mono amp.
150-300 nominal rms at 4 ohm
600rms Max at 4 ohm
So im lost as to what sub to get .. do I listen to him and get 150w amp, or 300w? Any suggestions would help.
Plus im looking for a mono amp.

No need for a mono amp unless you are going to be adding another sub. Do you plan on upgrading or adding another sub? If the answer is yes, then look for a larger mono amp, if not, then a 2 channel amp that can bridge to mono at 200-350w rms is all you require.

Most mono amps make their full rated power with two or more subs (and or voicecoils) attached to them. You have a single sub with a single voicecoil, ideally it is suited to a 2 channel amp that when bridged yields maximum power to that single voicecoil. Amp recommendations vary with price range, what price range for a amp are you considering.

I'd suggest you go with a 300 watt rms 2-channel amp.
