And the BB2400.1 is here http://cgi.ebay.com/PLANET-AUDIO-BB2400-1-3000W-MONO-D-Car-Amplifier-Amp_W0QQitemZ350261934154QQcmdZViewItemQQptZCar_Amplifiers?hash=item518d3cf84a and claims to be new. Anyone have any input on this brand in general or these specific amps. I am looking to push a high powerd single 12 in a daily driver/ mild comp setup. TIA.

Just save up your money and get a reliable amp that has good customer service and does rated power and more. What are you looking for in an amplifier? What will it power?

Me and a buddy of mine did an install with one of the RXD2400 powering a solo X 12" rated at 2500watts rms all running off an optima in the front and a kinetik 2400 in the back. big 3 done in 1/0 and install done with 1/0 cable. clamped the amp and only got about 2000 watts out at 1ohm. the amp is rated at 2400 watts at 1ohm.

I live in houston and planet audio is one of the lower end brands they sell in flea markets. In that price range i would go with a hifonics brutus BXI2006D. I have experience with the brutus line and they put out more than what they are rated at.

I'm sort of still undecided. I am trying to get the most I can from the trunk out of a ported enclosure with a single 12. I was looking at the CADENCE DAYTONA DCW-12RVC 12" here http://www.audiosavings.com/products/product-details.aspx?item_guid=0f684393-78b3-456f-9bff-bc6dca4d02dc or the RE AUDIO MX12D2 12" here http://www.audiosavings.com/products/RE-AUDIO-MX12D2-MX12-D2-MX-12-3000w-CAR-SUBWOOFER-SUB.gf7a612ac-c86c-4d89-84cf-a7d4e35c688a.r.aspx

Or do you think I would be better off just sticking with the AQ setup AQ HDC3-12 and AQ1200d? Was just thinking I could get more bang for my buck LOL.

Actaully that is my other option, just didn't list it to keep the thread simple. Thanks for the input.

What about Cadence? I have read some good things about them. Maybe a CADENCE ZRS-C2 here http://www.audiosavings.com/products/NEW-CADENCE-ZRS-C2-COMPETITION-3200w-2-CHAN-AMPLIFIER.g603b80f8-da92-462b-bea0-821d492735ea.r.aspx

I like their speakers, but don't have experience with their amps.

So you think the CADENCE DAYTONA DCW-12RVC 12" is a good buy? Ever used one?

Well you cant get the most from a trunk with a 12" sub and ported enclosure with best bang for your buck equipment. Not saying you cant have a good system but you wont be getting the most from it. I think you should figure out what you sub your running first and then decide on an amp because your jumping from 1200 rms to 2000rms, seems like your all over the place. You should give a budget on how much you have to spend or want to spend (wires, box, electrical, amp and subs).

Depending on sub, you can get alot from a trunk. but I agree with jay-cee, figure out a budget and go from there on which direction you want to go. I was assuming that you already had the sub and wanted opinion on the amp.

I have most everything leftover from my previous setup. Yellow Top under the hood with Big 3 done in 2gauge welding cable and 0 CWG run to the trunk. I plan on building the box myself and I will be looking to spend $500 to $600 for amp and one 12.

IMO, the best bang for the buck as far as amps: HIFONICS, SOUNDSTREAM, AQ

If you have the money to spend: SUNDOWN

[jcarter1885 995]

With what you have been naming lately, if you want bang for your buck then stick with what you have in your signature. I personally would go Sundown(do rated power at 12.8volts, not a 14.4 volts like most amps and since you wont see 14.4volts continuously you wont be getting max potential from your amp) for amps but its all up to you.

[Tirefryr 1,742]

You get what you pay for.

HiFonics is shit. Period. Planet Audio is leaps and bounds better. Their old stuff is really good actually.

The RXD2400 isn't listed on their website, so I assume it is older. Do you know anything about them?

He basically gave you all the information you need to know about them, if it isnt on there website it only means its new and their website is not updated or its old but not the older versions like he is talking about.

Just leave those amps alone period.

I would rather you get Audioque over them (if it were me I would save up more money and buy one of the best amps out there, your money/system/electrical will thank you in the long run).

Sundown has a presale on their amp right now for $250 I believe, it does 1200rms + @ 1 ohm(puts out close to 1500rms @ 1ohm). Go get that and call it a day (Sundown SAE-1200D), that will still leave you $250-$350 for subwoofer.

I wouldn't touch it for anything over $100. There's so much out there better for the same price or less. Don't be afraid to buy used equipment either.

Your Cadence idea is great too. They are virtually bulletproof and very efficient. The Daytona series were very good amps.

The Sundown deal previously posted is a great idea also.

If you going to go with planet audio stick to the stuff that was made by zed. I believe zed stopped dealing with planet audio in the late 90's
