Ok I am buying stereo gear for my car and I need a little help this is what I have so far (not hooked up yet).

PIONEER DEH-P680MP Deck 4 x 50Watts Mosfet
PIONEER TS-A1682R 6.5" 4-WAY 280W SPEAKERS 2 for the front doors and 2 for the rear speakers
2 KENWOOD KFC-W3011 12" SUBWOOFERS 1200watts each

Basicly what im wondering is what will i need for amps that will make it sound great but not burn a whole in my pocket.

One amp i was looking at was KENWOOD KAC-7203 2-CHANNEL 1000W AMPLIFIER
stats are...
Max Power Output : 1000W
Rated Power Output:
170W x 2 @ 4ohm
250W x 2 @ 2 ohm
500W x 1 @ 4 ohm bridged

It's going for around $100.

Anyways hope you guys and help.

Thanks,
Matt

what were you planning on using that amp for, because its not going to be strong enough for those subs... without doing an research on them, i'm going to guess that they are 1200watts max, meaning closer to 600 watts rms, you would need them to be at 4ohms to get the 500 watts for the subs, but thats still for only one...

I've got a 10" Type R if you want for cheap, it runs at 500w RMS dual 2ohm


otherwise, that amp won't work for the 12's you're looking at

Yeah i wasnt sure if that amp would be any good or not here is the link for the subs with all the info on them. http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...7515&rd=1&rd=1

So with those 2 1200watt subs what am i gonna need for an amp to run them so they perform the way they are saposed to? should it be a mono amp, 2 chan etc...?

Ok so i think im figuring this out im some what new at this... I found this amp here which is 1800watts but is rated at 500watts at 4ohms and the subs are 4 ohms so that one amp would only be good for one right i would have to have 2 of those amps to power both subs right wouldnt I?

this is the amp
