I am loking for a amp to power two RE re12 in a sealed box. Im looking for one around $200. I got both subs for $97, so I dont want to spend alot. Any suggestions
make sure its a low line brutus, those subs are only rated at 175 w rms each (250 peak) this is the thermal rating of the voice coils, u can safely run about 200-225 rms, but any more than that and you will blow them
btw i run a SX 15 in my 240 off a JL 500/1 (947 wrms) and the sx is rated at 1000, so just keep your head about it and they will rock your ride
Im leaning towrds a PG octane R 4.0:2 400 watts. That way when I upgrade I can use that amp to rum my components. Does anybody have any other suggestions or reasons not to buy this amp. It will cost aroun $110 shipped
the PG tantrum amps are great amps from what ive heard, dont know much about the rest of there lineup, but i have always used seperate amps for comps and subs, i prefer to run class D mono power to my subs and a/b for my comps. an eD nine.2 would be a great amp to power your subs and u can get it for 20% off now! then u could always pick up another one down the road to power your highs... just my 2 cents!
I also use seperate amps for my components and subs. That hifonics amp was just to much power so I was looking at a 2ch bridgeable amp tha way when I get better subs I can use the 2 ch for my comps and get a different sub amp. I just pulled all of my kicker stuff out of my car and Im instyalling it in my truck. So basically it is a temporary set up. I only bought the RE because of the group buy
have you looked into the eD amps? the nine.2 is a great amp for mids/highs, and would be about what your looking for to power the re12's right now, then you could always pick up a nine.1 later for a new sub setup and have matching amps! just my 2 cents tho
Im looking into the ED amp. Im going to a local shop that used to carry PG until they started carrying Alpine. To see what they have to say about their amps. A freind from school works there. Im trying to stay low budget on the amp because I need components and rear speakers for my truck kind of a give and take
I went ahead and got the pg octane r amp. A kid I went to school with said they were okay so I figured for that price I would try it. I installed it yesterday and havent really got a good chance to listen to it. From what I have heard I figure not to bad for $200 worth of subs and amp together I post a more detailed reveiw in a few days

Too bad, cause I was gonna recommend Avionixx amps. They are the build company for eD (but dont hold that against Avionixx, they arent associated with eD's bad business practices). You can get a nice 400 watt amp for $149 brand new on the net. I would say better than most budget Hifonics, PG, JBL, etc...
Ah man where were you 20 days ago I have read good reviews about the avionixx amps but could never find one that cheap do you have link or something. Thanks anyways stil havent really had a chance to listen to my system yet and I could probaly sale my pg for the money I paid for it.
