None of these amps have 1 ohm ratings. Does that mean they can't support 1 ohm loads??? If they can how many RMS W?

Like this one........

......would that be 800-1000 W RMS at 1 ohm???

I'm trying to get an alpine amp for this. Anybody know a good alpine amp for my subs?

Also, would this be a good amp for my components and 6x9's....

the 2 first amps are not one ohm stable and will have issues if you try to. look at the amps i listed? do you have to have alpine? and are we not gonna steer you away from rear speakers?

I don't see any amps in the Alpine lineup that are stable at 1 ohm. You might have to go with two seperate amps, one for each sub. If you're dead set on sticking with Alpine.

You want to make sure your electrical system can handle that too. Upgrade the "big 3" (wires from alt to bat, wire from bat to ground, and engine block to ground) That will help a ton. You will also want to look into upgrading your alternator, and battery.

If money isn't an issue, and you are willing to be wait and save up. Check out some local dealers and see what they have. For a noob thats the best way to go.

1.) They are always there when you need help
2.) The stuff has a warranty (longer)
3.) You can listen to what you want before you buy.
4.) They know how to install everything.
5.) If anything goes wrong, you have a place to go back to

But if you don't what to go that route, I still say go in there and listen to some subs, compt set ect....then let use know of the ones you liked, and we can help you from there.
