What kind of subs do you have & what are you trying to accomplish.

neither, ,there both pyles of junk. you will be very displeased. What subs are you trying to push? we can help you get the best bang for your buck.

The reason im saying there just is because they use cheep components and lie about there output, the 2000watt model will only in reality put out about 400 watts.

Its basically like saying a geo metro has a 1000 horsepower 3 cylender engine

You can get that amp right there, , its real power 1200 watts RMS , , its about 4 times too much power for those subs. Use those subs until they go to heaven, , then you can get some quality subs in the future and shake your ride apart.

In the future, when purchaseing equipment stay away from the flee market brands like legacy, pyle, pyramid, boss, and such. They make very sub par equipment. Shure for $40 2 subs is a deal, , but you can get 1 good sub for $120 that will blow both of those $40 subs away and then some.

You definately want to stick with the names that have made a reputation for themselves, you will learn shortly that there is a major difference between the flee market brands and the whell known brands.
