oh i should have said why, i had started a thread about a week ago saying i got it blown from ebay. (i didnt know it was blown when i bought it) so since then i have been looking for another 600 watt rms amp. but i know i wont get that rated power because of the volts. should i get like a hifonics 800? would that produce like 600-ish?

ohh yaaa I remember now about your amp, my bad it slipped. You could look into a JBL600 amp. Can find those on ebay for hella cheap. You tried to hook up the JL right? And what did the seller say about the amp? If you get the new model lines of Hifonics they put out rated power. But depending on your charging system it should push 600rms.

yeah i tried the jl amp, then i brought it to mobile one and had my boy try and he said the outputs were blown, something about a signal, i have yet to try a set of rca's that run to my 4-channel and put the subs in the other set of outputs, i work overnight and i'm only off on wed. and thurs. night . . so maybe next wed i'll try that

Why not get the hifonics, and install a high ouput alt later?

Well I found an 200amp alt for 215. But usually they are really expensive.
