Best or recommended car amps and subs
Just wanted to get some feedback on what you guys think are the best amps/ subs for the xB. I'm looking for good quality at a reasonable price. I'd like the amp to be able to push a dual voice coil 12" woofer in a single sub enclosure box. I want an amp that produces clear, but hard hitting lows. So far I've been looking at the Performance Teknique 7 series and MA Audio amps. There are just so many choices out there and I'm in the market for making an upgrade that will last me a long time.
Thanks for the feedback.

well I have my Kicker Amps for sale.
The Kicker zx750.1 has been the nicest Class D amp Ive used in my multiple systems put in my cars. Its 750w rms @ 2ohms, perfect for a single 12" even though I use it on a Kicker 10" L7. Im only selling because Im downgrading to something smaller.

I've been looking at the Kicker CVR's and I hear good things about them. Haven't actually heard them yet with my own ears though.
Checked out the Nine amps and those joints look pretty sick. So would you say that Nine is the new leader of the pack when it comes to amps? I remember back in the day people were big on anything Alpine, JL Audio, Pyle, and Clarion.

If you want clean power, check out JL Audio. They STILL dominate the audio market with some of the best products available. They are on the expensive side, though.
Elemental Designs manufactures good quality products for considerably less money. They are certainly worth a look if you are on a tight budget.
Many of the names from "old-school" days are still around, but they do NOT produce the same product quality as they did years ago. DEI got their hands on several companies and literally ruined their production by using cheaper components from overseas rather than paying for continued development of superior products in the US.
And just to set the record straight, Pyle was NEVER a high quality producer. They were junk even when they were popular.
