I have two 15" Power Acoustik PW3-15H 900W RMS Dual 2 Ohm Voice Coil Subs and i wanted to know if i would double the RMS and get an amp the could handle 1800 RMS or just 900 RMS, if you have any suggestions on amps please let me know! |

1800wrms at 2 ohms is what you want to find in an amp. or somewhere near that but dont overpower them.

i would recommend a kicker zx1500.1
one can be had for $380 at hifisoundconnection refurbied.
with that much power, have you done the Big 3 and upgraded your alternator?
most alternators can only handle 1000wrms before needing an upgrade |
