Help with subwoofers! What amp should I get in order to get the best hard hitting bass from my subs?

Question

I got two 600 Watt Subwoofers, what kind of amp do I need. does a 600 Watt amp give 600 Watt per channel?

Answer 1

Well you do not need to run 600 watts to each channel. An a 600 watt amp usual means that is what the amp is capable of of pushing over a single channel, im not entirely sure about that. What i am sure of is that you need to meet the rms wattage of the subs, other wise they with sound well under powered. The choice of an amp depends on the voice coil on the subs and how else you plan on wiring them. The type and brand of amp is usual a personal choice, but the type of amp should probably be a 2 channel or mono channel amp if your just going to be running subs. Well i hope i may have help a little good luck

Answer 2

theres a good variety mtx ,kicker,i have a hifonics and a memphis hooked up to my jl audio

Answer 3

it will say so on the amp. if its a 2 channel amp and it says something like:

600Watts x2 @2 ohms

then that means each channel put out 600 watts.

if its a mono amp then there is only one channel and whatever the wattage is is how much that channel will produce.

but you could have something like 400 Watts RMS

100Watts x4 at 4ohms

and that amp would be a 400 watts RmS amp, but only at 100 watts per cannel.
