Reccomend a 3 ohm Sub amp please

Yeah something around 300watts rms. Thats how I got my sub wired for 3 ohms. Whats a decently priced amp with remote sub control if possible?

If you guys have not heard the bad news, my large a$$ xtant **** the bed after hitting a major frigging pothole which reduced my tires psi from 29 to 10.

I have used my sub amp and old Kenwood 728s to power my components and it sounds fine. Now I need a replacement amp for the sub. 3ohms please, its a single 12inch DVC.



Thanks!

any amp can do that, you got a sub that runs at 6 ohms and you got it wired to run at 3 ohms thats all. its not the amp that pushes the ohms is how you wire the spk.

Well if you would have seen the size of the pothole, you would know what I am talking about. I was waiting for my lights on the dash to all come on, wheels fall off, everything but I guess the old beefy 15 inch stockers absorb all that. I had some of the stuff installed temporarily til this spring when I will redo the trunk. With the next amp I will put support/dampening for it.

Back on topic please, whats a recommended sub amp for my Three Ohms Load?
