I have been given this link as a recommendation amp for my Atlas 15.

PPI AMP ON EBAY

Would that match up well with my Atlas 15? It's pretty inexpensive and I hear it's pretty good. Anyone have any experience with them?

Thanks,
Aaron

Buy it and try it, on-line amp purchase is scary though....

You were getting rid of ur 15 anyawys

So is it a good amp? Better than my Profile I have now? I've decided I will change my amp, not the sub.

may be better than the profile, but not a "great" amp by far.

Black Maxima

What would you recommend for the Atlas? Try to keep it cheap.

What is cheap? Didnt you say in your other thread: "up to $600"

Black Maxima

No I didn't say that. I don't know wheryou got tha from.

Don't get anything until you can drop a good $400 or so. Save up, do it right the first time.

Black Maxima

It's not that easy. I just don't want my sub to clip and still get pretty loud.

Save the effing money. Why is it not that easy?

Black Maxima

I don't get paid much. I need to buy gas, car parts, payments, and food. HAHA

I guess I misread it..

Black Maxima

Oh, Not to crazy like 600 bucks meaning I don't want to spend 600 bucks. I'm leaning more towards like maybe 200 used.

how many w rms is the sub?

So waste 2 bills now, then waste some more when that amp eventually fails. Seriously man... save up even if it takes a couple months... it's worth it.

yeah, for now turn the gain down a bit so you don't kill the sub. when you have sufficient funds, get a quality amp.

black max - did you buy the PPI amp yet? i see that amp bridged is 300 watts. i have a 400 watt mono JL Audio amp i could sell you... and you live somewhat close.

Black Maxima

I believe the sub is rated for about 350 to 400 watts rms.

I did not buy anything yet. That JL amp sounds interesting. Please send me a PM with more information.

WRONG

250 watts rms


But it should be fine with 500 watts rms

AscendantMax

iTrader: (7)

eh, 500 is a bit too much for a sub rated at 250 duncha think?

sunten1

I talked to the owner of the company and he said as long as you watch that gain it should be find. Many people have used that sub at 500 watts rms

Ah, I guess if Chad said it was ok...then it's ok. I never did get to talk to that man. I tried countless times, so I end up going with SS. /rant over

mmmmmmmm Atlas

and yeah...I used like 600 wrms on it, but I knew what I was doing

(to everyone reading this: dont blame me if the sub blows)

BTW...you can wire it to 6 ohms
