I just got my ssa xcon 12" and all i had was a 250 watt amp so I hooked it up to see what it sounded like and omfg this thing is really the best sounding subwoofer I have ever heard and got loud of the little power I gave it , so now im looking for an amp to power this beast. It is a d2 so any suggestions on a good amp besides sundown ?

Thank you.

Ive seen good results with Hifonics amps if your looking to stay on the cheaper side.

i have used the brz1200 before and its awsome. i also have friends with the 1700 and 2100, we have never had any problems with them.

Anything that does rated power between 1k-2k will really wake the XCON up.

hmm I was interested in the new ppi bk1800.1 , but im not sure on the ppi's new stuff. Me personally I dont like hifonics . I was also looking at crescendo audio bc2000 but its allitle on the high side of my budget .

you can look at aq amp, also may want to consider buying used or referbish (db-r electronics) if budget is going to be a problem or look at the 1200 - 1500 watts rms range.

If you are not trying to chase numbers, sacrifice a little on ratted power for a quality amplifier that will last. An Xcon on a quality amplifier in a solidly built sealed box is outstanding. Don't feel the need to run 2000 watts to it.

Im running it in a 3 cubic feet tuned to 30hz with 2 4" aeroports, its just a daily setup that I want to sound clean and get loud I was looking at the 1500 rms to 2000 range. Not more then $350 , used is also an option. Thank you for your help I just wanted to know what people were runing and what amp sounds the best. I am runing an xs power battery and my car has 0 gauge wire for power and ground (1995 bmw m3). I plan on starting a build thread here maybe.
