Guest Slash Guests Posted 06/05/10 05:27 AM Share Posted 06/05/10 05:27 AM Sub $300 wont even get you a sh*tter from Supercheap, let alone something to run that sub to it's potential at a stable resistence!If it were me, I'd either increase the budget or sell the sub & buy something lower end. $150 sub with $150 amp (matched powerwise of course) will sound better than that thing with a $300 amp anyday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 06/05/10 06:36 AM Author Share Posted 06/05/10 06:36 AM sub and box cost me 150$ so I dont want to spend less on the amp That BMF1000D is awesome. And under 400$. Shame I cant find any in .AU and its 100$ to have it posted here. Id spend 400$ on a decent monoblock 1 chan 1000w rms amp. I though they where bout 700$+ But 400$ is doable.
