I am wondering if anyone could give me some ideas on what amp i should buy to power two 12" Rockford Fosgagte Punch stage 1 subs. i want to get the most out of the subs since they are in a relatively small sealed box(.68 cu ft). looking for something relatively inexpensive that still provides all the power they can handle.

thanks
P

SUB Specs:
# 12" 4-ohm subwoofer
# molded polypropylene woofer cone with foam surround

you should be able to go with the rockford 3001 mono amp. i sell that setup all the time and it sounds pretty good for the money.

A JL 250/1 will give them 125watts a piece, plenty of jucie to get them moving
A Memphis 16-MCA300 will put 150 watts a piece to them

There about 5,000 other Amps that will work as well, whats your budget?
