i have 3 mtx 8000s 4 ohm svc subs. What is going to be the best amp, mono or two channel. i know they will be 1.3 ohms wired in parallel. Any suggestions on a good amp around the $500 range. thanks.

MTX makes like a 1000 watt 1 channel mono thats 1 Ohm stable I think, I'm not certain though, but I've run 3 Rockford HE's 4 Ohm SVC in parallel of a mono block JBL 1000.1 before and they rumbled, so if you can afford it I'd say get the JBL 1000.1 (a little pricy but if you can find a good deal on one they are well worth it)
