I hear lots of good things about adire shivas. They're 125 a piece? So Glass said. As for the amp everyone speaks highly of the JBL 1200.1 And that is still below $500. |

At full power, it will be too much. Shivas a8omh DVC's. Wire the coils in parallel and subs in parallel to get a 2ohm load. I hope you have sub-out on your deck, so you can turn the bass down a bit if the amp is too much power. But I think that even the JBL GTO601.1 will be more than enough for the Shivas. |
