Ok. Earlier this week i picked up an Orion H2 subwoofer (2006 version)
First off, i have to say that this thing absolutely pounds. Right now, im only running it on 400 watts and it still hits louder than my old Type R on 600 watts

but, i know im not even close to using the sub to its full potential, so im looking for an amp than can push 1200-1600 watts at 1Ohm (or 4 Ohms)
also, i know ths is cheap, but if its gonna cost more than $315 dollars, im just gonna get the Orion 2400 (unless, for example if it costs $350 and runs 1500 watts)

Ive been looking at the Power Acoustik Gothic series and the Alpine M2000, but im open to suggestions

 

i'd like to stay away from rconditioned stuff
can it run on 1 ohm?

 

It all depends on how a company reconditions their products . When you send in an amp to Mtx for repair , they charge everyone the same flat rate . Because they put a brand new board in the amp , test it to CEA standards and supply the test sheet . It's just like getting a brand new amp back . When MTX Reconditions an amp , They not only put a new board in , but new heatsinks , badge , terminal screws , test to CEA standards , supply the test sheet , seal it in plastic and put it in a brand new box . . You are getting a brand new amp . And I buy all my reconditioned MTX from an actual store , that is an MTX elite authorized dealer . I am currently running 3 Reconditioned MTX amps in my SQ competition 2001 Screw . I've been beating on them for 2 years , and NO problems . I would buy an MTX amp not working before I would ever buy anything Power Acoustik .

 

alright, well that sounds ok, but if the amp can't run more than 1200 watts at 1 ohm, its not gonna help me.
