Both would underpower it. What is the VC config on the sub?

If it's a dual two ohm, get this:

Neither. Get something 1ohm stable that puts out around 1200-1600wRMS. I'd consider something like the Hifonics 1605D or a even a Viper 2500D off of ikesound as really good budget amps that would work.

the hifonics is a really good amp. or you could get something from DLS or Arc or autotek or something else.

Considering he was looking at $300-350 amps, I don't think a DLS or ARC amp with that much power would be in his price range.

Thats the stat sheet from reaudio.com.
Says they're Dual 2 Ohm Standard, with Quad 2 and Dual 1 Available.

I dunno though, at this point I'm just shopping around. If Justin is still selling the Elevation gear when I get enuf cash that's prob the route I will go since it's priced so damn nicely.
