What type of amp would work good with this? and how do i figure out how many watts a sub needs from an amp and how do i figure out which amp is rite for a sub? i never understood any of this, please help! THANKS! Post #: 1

It is a single voice coil and tripsevn7 is right about the RMS rating of 300 watts. I would get the Infinity 2 channel amp to push itInfinity Amp. To push it correctly all you need is a 8 guage wire kit. The Infinity amps just came out a few months ago but they sound nice and that one is matched perfectly for that sub.

Look up audio stuff online itll make you sick how cheap you can find things on here. www.etronics.com _____________________________ (in reply to tripsevn7) Post #: 8
