Looking for a amp to treat 2 DVC Subs

I am looking for an amp to treat 2 ALPINE 1241 DVC subs. I want a nice back rub, and want to rattle the neighbors windows

Suggestions??

yes JL makes some nice amps, but you could get better for the price. type R's are 300rms? im guessing there 10inches then. uhm you could check this one out. http://www.thezeb.com/p-Kicker-04KX6...ier-106380.htm but how much do you want to spend? and what ohms are you running?

if the subs are 2 voice coils get a kicker 600.1 amp.
I have 2 12" kicker comp vr's and they are both 2 voice coils and it sounds loud as hell. The amp is 600 rms at the very least cause most of them are under rated and they are way below $700. A very quality amp btw.

I'm not gonna lie to you i have no idea. I got it from my friend in the box and everything and i never even touched it. but i think each voice coil is connected to its own pos and neg and then i have both or pos leads and neg leads fromt he box going into the mono inputs. And that ampo is not broken the person pushed it too hard and it went into protection mode. The amp is fine. My amp went into protection mode constantly after i got my second amp for my mids and high's. Turns out it wasn't drawing enough power because of 2 amps so i got a capacitor and have never had a problem since.

hifonics BX1000d 750w at 2ohm. stable down to one ohm at 1000w. plenty of power if you want to upgrade. and a remote bass contorol. you can pick one up for about 250.
