Pioneer Premier TS-W1207D4 4-OHM rated at 400RMS. I am looking at some Crunch amps. They have a 1000W mono amp and a 1000W 2-channel amp. The mono amps seem to be more expensive so is there any difference between the two and how they would power the subs? www.onlinecarstereo.com for more specs
 
lol, i was totally thinking subway and realized i was so far off base as i kept reading the questions.. i guess it's lunchtime:)

sorry i don't have any speaker/amp knowledges tho:(
 
As far as the subs go, I'd suggest subway or quiznos. Try the double meat. Delicious! I'd just stick to the regular amp, I don't care for the sugar free one. Wait...what was the question?
 
If your speakers are only rated for 400 watts RMS, you should not get amps rated above that. 100W - 200W per channel will be quite strong enough to deliver clean sound to the speakers without the risk of blowing them out.
 
The Pioneer Premier TS-W1207D4 4-OH is a good one!
can you answer mine ?

Crunch is generic. Get a name brand amp. A Class D mono amp is more efficient than a Class AB 2-channel bridged. Look at RMS numbers, and always disregard peak numbers. So if you have two subs, that are 400 watts RMS each, and SVC 4-ohm, you need a mono amp that is rated at 500-800 watts RMS@2-ohms.

Good brands, including but not limited to: Alpine, Rockford Fosgate, Kicker, JL Audio, Soundstream, ARC Audio, Cadence, Diamond Audio, Focal, Dayton (subs), Precision Power, some MTX, RE audio, Fi car audio, Sundown Audio, Hertz, MB Quart, Zapco, Infinity, Incriminator Audio, Missing Link Audio, JBL, Mach5, Ascendent audio, DC sound labs, Digital Designs, Pioneer Premier; old school brands: Lanzar, Hifonics, Orion, and Phoenix Gold.

Mediocre brands (brands that are good for the money, but there is better): Quantum Audio, Sony ES line, Memphis, Dual, Infinity (in my opinion), Pioneer, Kenwood (in my opinion).

Generic brands, including, but not limited to: Pyramid, Boss, Profile, Lanzar (except old school Lanzars), HiFonics (again except old school, series VIII and earlier), Legacy, American Pro, Rampage, MA Audio, Alphasonik, Crunch, Lightning Audio, Visionik, Audiovox, Volfenhag, Rockwood, Jensen, American Legacy, Audiobahn, Sony Explod line, VR3, JVC, Pyle.
