Im interested in buying 2 Audiobahn AW1251T's which are as follows...

* Size: 12 inch
* Rec. Sealed Box Dims: 1 - 2 cu.ft.
* Rec. Ported Box Dims: 1.3 - 3.15 cu.ft
* Free Air Usage: not recommended
* Sensitivity: 92.1 dB
* Frequency Response: 24-1000 Hz
* Recommended RMS Power: 400W
* Peak Power Handling: 800W
* Impedance: dual 4 ohms subwoofer wiring options


Now I need help finding me an amp that will at least get me 800 watts of power without spending that much.... i was wondering between the following amps...

1.)http://www.overstock.com/cgi-bin/d2....cid=99665&fp=F

2.) http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2-AUD...23560092QQrdZ1

3.)http://cgi.ebay.com/TWO-AUDIOBAHN-AW...QQcmdZViewItem


****

sorry, yes i am a subwoofer n00b and stuff so i need this help desperately ...if you could post if these would even work with these subs that would help greatly but im interested if you can figure it out how much wattage i would get out of these subs with all 3 of these amps so i will know which to buy, if any. your help would be greatly appreciated and how much would wiring cost me? thanks

or if someone could find me something THAT'S GOOD that would give me a MINIMUM of 800 watts for EVERYTHING (subs, amp, box, etc.) for under $400 if possible would be great. thanks


keep in mind i say under $400 because i plan to use eBay to find a great deal ;)

ok i signed up on the ED forums and i got my questions answered.....now i must choose between

1.) NiNe2x amp and 1 130v.2 for 600 watts power

or

2.) NiNe.1 amp and 2 130v.2s for 1200 watts power.

these are going to run me more than i wanted but i need to try to find a good deal on ebay or someone wanting to sell them.

Why base your system on the wattage? In the long run I know you would prefer a low-watt, high-quality system to a system that advertises pure wattage.

eD is a good bang for the buck for new gear. You can get the popular brands on ebay pretty cheap (Kicker, Infinity).

your not gonna find a amp with that kind of power thats any good for that price, but i agree with the other guy, theres lots better out there than audiobauhn...
im running 2 12" memphis M3 mojos, thru a rockford p6001, and rockford power series component speakers thru a rockford p1004 (not sure on the number for the speaker amp) its all out of an eclipse touchscreen and has fliters thru it all, it was pretty pricey , but sounds better than anyone else ive ever seen, for saving money, you can stick with the audiobaughns if you really want to, but your going to need a serious amp, and im not sure they will sound good
