I'm after some soundage now, after my mates car inspiring me.

I want a half decent brand (looking at JBL or similar).

Found some twin subs, however, I need an amp to power them

They're 2 500W Max subs, so obviously I need something to go to that amount really.

Looking to spend ~ £30 ish. May buy second hand if I really need to.

Just want the amp to run the subs really.

£30?

wont get you much really, 2nd hand is the way to go with ice!

I run a rockford fosgate 12" punch sub on a jbl grand touring 200w amp, a good 200w amp is more than enough for my 1500w sub!

I would say ebay, ideally you should run 2, 2 channel amps bridged for the best sound or a 2 channel bridged accross both subs

Going to buy a package deal and some speakers from Bass Junkies.

My car is currently stripped (including head lining unfortunatley) but it will be getting new custom interior as I go along.

Not after earth shattering sounds, but I do want something that will definately bring some sound to my life :D

Yikes, £30 won't even get you a decent second hand amp.

Whats the RMS, PMPO and resistance (ohms) of the subs?

Better than the Fusion ones my mate has.

Anyways, Im still after an amp, but it's only to power a single 1000W max sub.

Anyone any recomendations?

Get something like this ( Alpline V12 (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/alpine-v12-amp-4-3-2-channel-mrv-f300_W0QQitemZ170292157308QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Au dio_TV_Electronics_In_Car_Entertainment_GPS_Car_Am plifiers_PP?hash=item170292157308&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1301%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C 240%3A1318) ) You will also be able to run some 6x9's of this too.

This will do you. ( JBL amp (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NO-RESERVE-JBL-GTQ400-COMPETITION-AMP_W0QQitemZ290286578970QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Aud io_TV_Electronics_In_Car_Entertainment_GPS_Car_Amp lifiers_PP?hash=item290286578970&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1299%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C 240%3A1318)) Be quick though 8 mins left :thumb:

Going to be running some sort of coaxials from the HU in the read door cards....so just want an amp that will power the sub sufficiently.

Apparently the Fli ones arent bad for the money, will look into those Alpines though David, kind of into Alpine stuff atm.
