1 ohm stable?

Nice Choice,

There will be more heat, so consider 2 guage power cable.

You'll be looking for a Class D mono amp. I like Kenwood, Fosgate, or even Audiobahn.

sorry so short

gotta go

The little Kenwood D class KDC8101(?) works really well.  Less than 40 amp draw, 1 ohm stable, runs cool.  Produces about 500 wRMS @ 1 ohm + 13 volts, all this and 2 year warrenty!

There are many decent amps out there but a few things to remember.....

Just because an amp is  "1 ohm stable" doesn't necessarily mean that it will continuosly run at 1 ohm. Most will overheat and shutdown on hot days....

Even though a speaker is rated at "4 ohms", this is not a constant. Speaker impedance is dependant on the frequency passing through it (it could be 80 ohms at 100 hz. .2 ohms at 20 hz etc. So while they be a "nominal" 1 ohm with your speakers in parallel, you may drop well into the tenths of an ohm at certain frequencies.

Last but not least,

No matter what amp you do buy, you have to feed it the power in order to get the power out. While your battery may be able to give you short bursts of power, most of your power comes from your alternator when the car is running. If your alternator is too small (light dims while stopped, etc), no matter what amp you buy (large power amps), you will never get that kind of power out of it (basic Ohms' law     power= volts X current ). example: If I wanted a 1000 watts out of an amp, at 12 volts, I would have to feed it 83 amps of current assuming the amp was 100% efficient (no such thing). Most stock alternators are sized 25 % larger than what is required to run the vehicle (I've worked for GM for 18+ years);so a 100 amp alternator would leave you 25 amps to work with. Sorry post is so long

pm me and I can elaborate more.........
