i like kicker, and some others on here and vouche for them too. I say for 140 new that would be a good deal.

thanks for the input. So far im leaning toward the kicker zx300.1 mono amp. Has any1 heard them? im thinkin about goin to circuit city to see how it sounds. I like the price of it i can get it for about 140$ shipped from ebay. If any1 has any other suggestions just let me know.

I picked up a PG xenon for a friend, and it's not bad. Gets the job done I'd say. 400.1 too. You can get those for about 150 on ebay...

i'd just go with the 1st amp... nice sub selection. i had a 13w1v2 and i loved it.

I would go with either of the first 2 amps listed.

As for using that diamond, i dont think it will work the way you think its goin to. By bridging it, you are occupying all 4 channels. You COULD look into a 3 channel that can run your comps as well as run a sub on the 3rd channel...but since you already have another amp, i'd just buy a separate sub amp and use the one you have as your component amp.

Hope this helps.

Heres some of the amps ive been lookin at to power 2 jl w1's 12's (there svc 4ohm) and 150 rms each. btw if u have any suggestions of other amps just name them, i dont wana spend more then 200$, ill prob get the amp of ebay.

1. '06 KICKER ZX300.1 300 W. MONO
300 watts x 1 @ 2 ohms rms Rated (Birth sheet included with actual tested power)

2. Orion 300d Class-D Monoblock
300W RMS x 1 @ 1 Ohm
600W Peak x 1 @ 1 Ohm
(im not sure of the 1ohm since the subs r svc 4ohm, dont i have to wire them to a 2ohm amp?)

3. Kicker zx 350.2 110 watts RMS x 2 at 4 ohms (175 watts RMS x 2 at 2 ohms)
350 watts RMS x 1 in bridged mode (4-ohm stable in bridged mode)

4. Phoenix gold xenon 400.1 400W x 1 (4-1 ohm) Power

Also i plan on gettin front components soon and i have an oldschool blue 150.2 orion cobalt amp i was goin to use for them but i was just wondering if this amp would work for both the subs and the components

DIAMOND AUDIO D3 400.4 4 CHANNEL 400 WATT AMPLIFIER
RMS Power (4 ohms) 57 watts x 4 chan.
RMS Power (2 ohms) 88 watts x 4 chan.
RMS Power (1 ohm) Not Stable
Bridged RMS Power 182 watts x 2 chan.
Peak Power Output 700 watts approx.

- Im wondering if i can power the subs by bridging them 182x2, then the components at 88x2 ?
