Ok I just purchased two 12" kappa infinity subs for my 2003 Dodge qwad cab truck, to go under the seats. Now my question is what amp should I go with, and what size? I was told I need a 4000 watt amp but I don’t know what brand. Can some one give me some help and tell me why? Thanks! |

I can go as high as $250, but I would like to stay around the $150-$200 range. And sorry man im not going to lie I don’t know a dam thing about systems so I don’t know what voice coils are. |

The subs are already in a box so I can’t see any thing but the face of them, and I bought them from a friend so I don’t have the packaging they came in. |

I would go with a decent class d sub woofer amp. Someone correct me if I am wrong but those subs are rated at 300 or 350 rms.You can get a 850 watt Planet Audio class d amp for 100 bucks on ebay. Its quality made by Zed audio and will draw very little current.Not to mention is made in the Usa. The amp you have listed above is a pretty good amp, it would push them with out any problem. If the subs are 4 ohms bridge each side to one sub. |
