What would be a good Amp for two Boston Acoustic g5s

Question

They are the single voice coil 450 rms 4ohm i want to wire them so they are as loud and clear as possible what would a good amp and what wiring method should i use

Answer 1

Go with something that has atleast a 750rms and that is not a "bo bo" amp. Spend some money to get something that is quality. You have some great subs.

Answer 2

since they are SVC subs and 4ohms they can be wired to give you impedances of 2 or 8ohms at the amp---- the lower the final impedance at the amp the lower the sound quality but the easier/cheaper it is to power and 2ohms will sound fine)

so you need an amp that has about 900watts RMS @ 2ohms (mono block) and is also CEA-compliant which means that the amp has been tested and produces or exceeds tha advertised RMS wattage with minimum distortion (distortion is the main cause of speaker damage)

here are the CEA-compiant brands

Alpine

Bazooka

Blaupunkt

Clarion

Eclipse

Infinity

JBL

JL Audio

JVC

Kenwood

Kicker

Memphis

MTX

Orion

Pioneer

Polk Audio

PPI

Rockford Fosgate

Sony

Answer 3

Kenwood KAC-9103D amplifier. It pumps 900 TRUE watts, so 450w to the subs. perfect match at 2 ohms. If you want to go higher because Boston Acoustics can take the pounding, go for a Crunch P2500D I believe it's called. It has a remote bass control and many controls that will suit for these great woofers. Good luck and happy bass heading.
