Seriously My Last Questions About Choosing Amps?

Everyone Said The Mtx Thunder 2301 Is Better Than The Hifonics Brutus BXi606 For My 2 12'' Kenwood Tornados %26amp; My 1200 Watt 500 Watt Rms Power Acoustik Sub.People Told Me Runnin 2 Different Subs Is Bad Butt Im Usin 2 Different Amps Until I Get Matchin Subs I Found 2 Mtx Mono Amps %26amp; I Need 2 Know Which 1 Will B Da Best For My Subwoofers.


O Yea Which Eva Mtx Amp U Pick Will It B Able To Make My Subs B Heard B 4 U C Me? Please Answer.





Ok Lemme Shut Up Heres Da Amps.

Power is power!





It doesn't matter what amp as all you need is 500 Watt RMS X 2. That means you will need TWO of ANY of the 500 watt RSM amps you listed.





With that much power, you're obviously not looking for quality.





Different subs matter as they are what produce the SOUND!





What I WOULD worry about is powering that amp.





If your total system power is 1000 watts RMS or more, you will need to:





1. Upgrade the alternator to a high output alternator


2. Upgrade to a heavy duty deep cycle battery


3. Upgrade the "Big 3" - that is to replace (or add to) the power wire between the battery and alternator, the ground from the battery to the chassis and the ground strap from the engine/tranny to the chassis with at least 2 AWG wire.





Failure to do this will result in you replacing them anyway as the alternator will eventually fail.





Here is a guide that will calculate what size alternator and power wires you need http://www.datafilehost.com/download.php鈥?/a>





You will need Microsoft Excel. If you don't have Excel, use this link http://www.box.net/shared/nkkw1dhk4g





A second battery is never a good idea as it's an added strain on the alternator to charge two batteries AND supply power for the car. The ONLY time a second battery is useful is if the audio system is to be used with the car off.





A capacitor is only good so far as the audio system isn't trying to pull too much from the electrical system. A cap doesn't provide more power, it's designed to 'stiffen' the voltage to the amp, nothing esle. If the current isn't there, a cap won't help. The alternator must have at least 20% more amperage power than the entire vehicle and sound system combined for a cap to be of benefit which is ironically the same requirements for an amp to be efficient.
