So i thought maybe you guys could help. I'm looking for a dcent (preferably class d for efficency) amp that'll do 200-250w RMS at 4 Ohms... no more then 250. Loloking for something thats not going to put a hgue hole in my pocket.

I need this amp to power my JL 13w1v2... Right now my JL e1200 is underpowernig the sub (it does 200@2ohms, sub is 4ohm SVC). I'm also about to get a new deck for my car that has subwoofer controls so i can control the eq settings for thet sub and fronts :)

JBL BP180.2 will do 360 bridge at 4 ohms. You could snag one off ebay for cheap. Is your box sealed or ported?

I second Kiki's reccomendation. And you can get it for $225.

http://www.cardomain.com/item/KIC04KX4001

Thats where you can buy it from. Authorized dealer, awesome customer service, ship next day etc. Pricematch with:

Just goto the cardomain link and down on the right side is the "105% lowest price policy" and fill out the form and they will email you back their price. Prolly be like $215 or something. Good luck.

Btw I own a Kicker KX 1200.1 and its an awesome amp. Just awesome.

i used a new kicker amp 1250 something with the digital settings and i thought it was really wussy. it was suppose to put out like 1450 watts and i put a hifonics 1605 in its place and the hifonics stomped the hell out of that kicker amp. it was alot more than a 150 watt difference it was like 600.
