Hey guys I'm thinking about getting these but want to make sure I get the correct amp. The subs should be 600watts RMS a piece and I am only looking for a mono block amp and I would like to run these at 2 ohms. can you guys suggest some amps that wont ____ out on me and that will run these well? Thanks.

I'm running a Kenwood mono amp. I've had it for 3ish years now with no issues. I also have an Alpine 4-channel that I haven't had any issues with, and I've heard nothing but good things about their monos.

A few years back I had a couple 12" dual vc P3s and had them running independently on 2 1500 fosgate dual channel while I had a 4 channel 1200 for my other 4 speakers. Give me a moment to cry because someone stole the whole setup though. But it sounded great once all the tuning was done even though you needed the bass controllers hooked up (but those controllers where nice for a quick adjustment).

Hifonics brutus for sure!!! I had a 2200 running two Memphis twelves and I couldn't get that thing to get hot at all. No problems at all! I would recommend. That sketchy shop i know about has them for sale there for pretty cheap

I am looking to get this setup installed this week so I can show it off on the 16th. Whats the address to this *Sketchy* shop? I can at least check it out. Shadezz I'm really leaning towards the Alpine amp though cause it seems like it would work great and its only like another $100 bucks over the hifonics. However I am still wanting to check out this *Sketchy* shop lol.

Apparently the Internet was down earlier. Go daddy was down and apparently, half the Internet went with it.
