what should I get? looking for an amp to power two JL W0s (150W rms each)
gimme your input guys. I'm looking to buy something soon and rather not spend a ton of money if I don't have to. the goal is something around 150-200w into 2 channels at 4 ohm, or 300-400 into one at 2 ohm.
If you liked my amp check this one out. http://www.crutchfield.com/S-us0Qzd7...0&I=500MRDM301
This is very similar to the one I have (I have the m-501), and it will give you 350x1 at 2 ohms. The subsonic filter on this is also much nicer than the ones on the alpines that just came out, which is nice if you do decide to go ported.

Thanks for the replies guys. I decided to give this one a shot. I picked it up for $130...

400x1 at 2ohms should be enough

damn, that was fast. I like the fact that it comes with a remote bass **** (that needs to be purchased seperately on the alpine I posted). I'll have to check it out at the next meet. BTW, what frequency do you plan on tuning the ports to?

now I just need the rain to stop!
I could easily be wrong, but 30Hz sounds pretty high for the subsonic filter. I don't think it needs to be set that high. Definitely don't take my word for it, I'd hate for you to damage your subs based on my word, it just sounds a little odd to me.

you should have excellent results with the setup.
