Amp Questions:

Hello,

I have a couple questions on my amp and what amp i should buy. So lets get down to the questions.

First i have a cheaper PYLE 1400 Watt Bridgable amp. Its not the best amp ever, but i got it for cheap and powers 10s pretty well. I was wondering if ill power my 2 15s for now? just until i buy a new amp.

Second Im looking at this amp, as my buddy said ill be the best amp for those subs as all the RMS match up great and that to wire them into paraelle. So if i wire them in paraelle and the amp has 2 negatives and 2 postives like you see, i will take the 2 postives from the subs and the 2 negatives and put them in one of the negative and one of the postive, thus leaving one negative and postive unused, correct?

Any one have any other idea's for amps that dont break the bank? I need it to be under $200 *WITH SHIPPING* Kinda on a budget.

DONT BUY ANY OF IT! the hifonics amps arent too bad though they make good budget gear.
BTW that sub is 8 ohms.

my suggestions SAVE YOUR MONIES then purchase worthy gear

goodluck!

ok, well i think with those 8ohms subs, wired into parrell to a mono amp, this amp should work great puts 500 to them, making it 250 to each and perfect power, plus quality.

Subs are decent on a budget, amp as well, only thing is the subs being 8 ohms,that amp wont putout anywhere near its potential @ 4 ohms, should be able to get that model sub in a 4 ohm version , pair them up and get 2 ohms......
Although im not a fan of the pyle amp, you should try it on new subs first, maybe you will be content with it until u can purchase a better quality amp. Not that i really know alot about the new hifonics stuff, just looks kinda cheap to me, i wouldnt buy myself..
