Recommended Posts

Whats a good amp for 500 rms at 2ohms just got big three done and stock alt in single cab. I may just be a noob but ia it better to run at 2 ohms rathrr than 1 to not tax the hell out of my electric

Either load will be fine. 500 RMS is not that much power, so you should be fine.

No, you will want to get a class D mono block for a subwoofer amplifier.

Could you elaborate on this for the op please?

A class a/b amp will work just fine for a subwoofer

Depending on you budget, this is a good option.

Class D amps are smaller and more efficient which makes them good choices for a sub amp, BUT at 500 watts RMS you shouldn't notice any drag on your electrical, especially since you have had the big 3 done. I have really enjoyed and been impressed with my Boston amp, might want to try this...http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_17785_Boston-Acoustics-GT-2125.html

The rockford fosgate prime amp is ab does 500 at two ohms is only 130. Seems like a good price what do you guys think?

If you look at this pic you can see that it says mono and points to the outside inputs. Put the positive in the positive and the negative in the negative.

You don't need anything crazy, 8 gauge will do but I would probably use 4.
