Exclamation Best amp???

Alright I took out the subs in the box I had posted about yesterday now the reading on the magnet is 500 watts"output" and it has 4 ohms??? The model number is BPPL-1222 so its definatly not rockford but if anyone know where I can find the best best amp for it now I have a 350 watt amp from my previous sub wich was a kicker 15" with obcon enclosure and Im not grtting as much bass as I should be getting with these subs so any information would be great thank you once again

BPPL-1222 are 2 12" Audiopipe subs in a bandpass enclosure. Since they are 4 ohms, find a mono-channel amp that outputs around 600Watts RMS @ 2 Ohms. THat's 300 watts to each sub, and believe me, that'd be plenty of bass.

My favorite amps are USAmps...very good, but very pricey. Depends what your price range is.

My old setup was a pair of 12" Audiopipes being pushed by a Rockford amp. It was only a 250W setup, but it was loud....if it wasn't the car alarms going off, it was the cops sirens.

JL has clean sound, but the higher the wattage.. the more pricey.

Hey 93Green.. how does USAmps sound? I've been to their website and saw the prices, but I was just wondering how they sounded.
