    Ok ive done my research and come to the conclusion that there are like 7 decent amp companies in my opinion. I have one mtx 9500 12in dual 4vc sub they say like 2000 watt max and they recomend like 750watt rms amp. ok i have a one ferrad cap and all the good wiring already in and i was running the older rockford fosgate bd1500d amp but i sold that. i was thinking on getting a diamond audio d6 amp the 1500 watt one dont remember the model number or a jl audio 500/1 amp. but then someone told me to check out phoenix gold and their octain r series amp and its like oh well i might as well check out the alpine v12 too. and ontop of this all i have an eclipse 7232 amp but its way big and way heavy so i want a different one.

    help lol

      I'd say put 1000 to 1500 watts per voice coil on that sub. we did a pretty large install with one of those and only used 1500 watts. It could have definately used another amp.

        i say get 2 lanzar vibe 1200d's...they are VERY reasonable in price, and @ 1 ohm push right around 1250 RMS...NOT max, but that's the RMS...brand new on ebay with warranty they are $220. im not just saying this because ive researched them, but i used to own one...i regret selling it sooo bad...anywho, get what you think is best for you...just my .02

          Like most everything else on Ebay, its probably a B-Stock refurbished amplifier for that price. As for brands.....Linear Power, Memphis, Zapco, JL Audio, Phoenix Gold Xenon, and Diamond are all good choices.

                      not huge, but if its DVC you could run a pair of them for the same price as huge amps

                            I dont think you're gonna get much SQ out of a 9500. Those things like to rattle stuff from what I can tell. 😉

                            I'm still going to stick w/ the 1500 watts per voice coil haha. Bump time.
                            Make up for the bass w/ a couple sets of components. 😉

                              I was about to ask is the 9500 really a SQ sub?

                                Not so much, but with the right sealed box w/ a QTC of .707 or so it would do ok (though not phenomonally clear as it is afterall an spl sub.) I still think a pair of those infinity amps I quoted you would work well.

                                  for an spl sub it sounds phenominal then again at this very moment i have 2000 watts per coil and its nice but its not an eclipse or something tighter than a wet pussy fart lol anywho back to the world of the less demented its a decent sub functions for what i want it to the amp is just soooo huge that i have to have it one a seperate rack thats just not practical

                                        i sold a few lanzars back in the day...i loved their older stuff...not too sure about the newer ones...my buddy bought a 6 channel for his entire system...it was like 80x4 and 300x2 @4ohms RMS

                                        At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!
