Hey there,

I've got a question. I have two Infinity Reference 12" 1232W subs. 300W RMS apiece, 1200W peak, dual voice coil 4ohm apiece. I want to spend less then 200 dollars on an amp, what kind of amp should I get? I cuold run 600W in a bridged setup at 4ohms. Any suggestions? Let me know. Thanks

I 2nd that, just wire your subs in parallel for a 1 ohm load.

it would if it wasn't 1 ohm stable,,,but it is stable to 1 ohm, so it is able to be wired to 1 ohm safely.
