I've got a Kicker 400.1 for my 12" sub. Got it new about a year and a half ago off ebay for $185.

rockford imo worth the money does more than rated but are pricey, best cheap amp ive owned and still use after 6 years is volfenhag there subs are junk but never a prob with the amp, ive got the 2000 watt with neon tubes on sides 156 bucks off ebay shipped, not sure about there other amps, im using 4 power acoustik a3000db in my truck i like them but they no longer make them but my buddy is using the power acoustik stax amps in his car and they work decant for the price,

What sub did you get?

the codes · Feb 7, 2012

the prob is idk about the sub other then it's a 10. I know it's comparable with a Rockford T500.1bd amp, other then that I'll have to ask tomorrow. the sub comes in the box, alot like mtx boxes. it's their company sub and it's tuned/timed for the box

OK...cause if we know the ohm rating we can definitely help ya with the amp selection.

the codes · Feb 7, 2012

well I'm thinking it's either 4 ohms, 2, or 1, or all of the above because that's what that $250 suggested amp powers

Yea, need to know final impedance at the sub or cup if it's a pre-loaded box...that will change your choices on amp.

well the guy is a rockford fosgate dealer so he is getting me the 400-1 punch and the eq control knob for 200. on amazon those two things are about 330-345. more then I want to spend but I feel like since the savings are there mind as well get more than I'm paying for

that amp will work. I go with the saying it is better to have an amp too big with the gain turned down than to have an amp too small with the gain turned up.
