Posted June 14, 201015 yr I'm looking at getting a single Death Penalty 21" for a daily driver. What would you guys recommend for an amp?
June 14, 201015 yr Author Ummmm, as cheap as possible to power this beast. I have a 270 amp alt and I'll get whatever batteries I need
June 14, 201015 yr Don't skimp on the amp! Sundown is a great amp .... The SAZ-1000D, SAZ-1500D or the all new SAX-1200D would be great on that sub. Other choices are Audiopipe, Audioque, Crecsendo, Kicker, Rockford ... etc!Check out the Classifieds section here for some great deals on amps.
June 14, 201015 yr Author Would it do good on an AudioQue 2200D? I see people running the 3000D's so I figure this is right in the middle Edited June 14, 201015 yr by DylanH
June 15, 201015 yr Get the new Sundown - SAZ-2500D it's on sale for $525 shipped from Sundown direct. It's a pre-sale and they should be here by the end of July.SAZ-2500D Pre-Sale OPEN - SSA Car Audio Forum
June 16, 201015 yr But on a serious note read over the testing and results of the new SAZ-2500D compared to the old SAZ-2000D. It is close to output as the old SAZ-3000D.
June 16, 201015 yr My vote is an used SAZ-1500D for around 300$ and use the other money on batteries, wire, deadning, front stage... etc.
June 16, 201015 yr Author My vote is an used SAZ-1500D for around 300$ and use the other money on batteries, wire, deadning, front stage... etc. Thats why I wanted to do an AQ 2200D But now that I think about it I could just do like a Sundown 1500D for awhile then I can just add a second one and strap them together onto the 21" DP. Or will it take that power? Edited June 16, 201015 yr by DylanH
June 17, 201015 yr Most of the people I have asked tell me that too much power for DAILY is kinda wasted money. You are doubling your expenses. One more amp, more wire, more juice... for what? Your ears won't hear much of a difference. Edited June 17, 201015 yr by The enD
June 17, 201015 yr Just get the AQ2200d. I have one on an 18" BTL and I like it alot. It doesn't get hot running at one ohm daily and Im able to run it on almost stock electrical.
June 17, 201015 yr Author Okay, so as long as no one has any objections I'm gonna go with the AQ 2200d
June 17, 201015 yr Author This thing should blow my 2 12" Type R's on an Alpine Mrp-M1000 out of the water right? What size box should I do running an AQ 2200d also what should I tune it to for a good daily that will SLAM the lows
June 17, 201015 yr This thing should blow my 2 12" Type R's on an Alpine Mrp-M1000 out of the water right? What size box should I do running an AQ 2200d also what should I tune it to for a good daily that will SLAM the lowsI would go with the average enclosure size of 8.5cubes and I would tune between 28-30hz for the low end. I also wouldn't go bigger than that if you plan on adding more power in the future. I own two of the DP21's and I am building and enclosure thats 22cubes net. volume. It should come out around 17cubes or a little greater after port,speaker,and bracing disp. I will also be running two Crunch GP3000D-PROs @ 0.5ohm when Im done. I already have one that I will be using to break them in.
