what is the best sub to pair this amp with

It depends on what you like 12inch or 15inch subs I have mine hook up too two 12inch mtx square subs and it rocks but i would say find you TWO subs you like maybe kicker pioneer mtx or kenwoods look for at least 1000 watt max subs

there is no best sub, but there are plenty good subs. this is a true 1600 watt amp, you can go with one sub if you want, preferably a sub that can be re-coned if blown. if your on a budget, kicker CVR is the way to go. 2 15s on this amp and a large sealed box and your good to go.

You will need a 1600w amp at minimum. The sub does not have an amp built in.

Yes, this amp has plenty of power, if your subs have a rms rating of 600 watt. Remember when matching a sub to amp, look for the total rms rating for the sub, not the total watt peak power. 30 to 75% of the rms rating, should be fine.

I smaller amp one with about 500-700 watts rms. this sub I believe can not handle the told watts.

You only need a sub if you want one, but they sound much better with one. I would highighly recommend a sub.

i have a Polk PSW125 Sub, that i have had for a while, it sounds great with the Klipsch Quintet 5.0 speakers, i think that any good powered sub, will do fine.

It would push the sub but probably not give you the complete power you need, I would suggest the brutus 2400.1 for your sub and make sure you have good power going to the amp.

Get a better amp. Better amp=clearer sound=les distortion=no blown speakers including Sub. Good luck.

I really like my alpine PDX-V9. It'll also power at least one sub. One of the most advanced amps out there

I Bought a kicker 1000w amps for mine. Give it plenty of amps so that nothing blows. I hooked up both my subs to that and they work like a charm!

Budget wise connect all four speakers to channels 1 & 2 and bridge 3 & 4 for the sub. It would work, but as to get the best performance from your speakers and sub I would have gone with a slightly more powerful amp. If you gots the cash, buy mono block amp cause that makes a difference. I know this amp all too well. Connected things all different ways to test for perfromance.

At least something with the same rms wattage at the ohms that it will be wired. I am using a 1500 but it is something I had lying around which isnt enough on a single channel but bridged is too much so u just have to make sure u tune correctly and let it break in it took about a week for me

That's what I use to power this amp. It will work. Moreover, it's always good to overpower ur sub than underpower them. Use the gain adjustment in the amp to get the right setting.

Depends on how much power you are putting into the system. I have two of these on an AQ1200. But they could take more. If you want more volume at lower rms, use two subs. Double cone volume-> 3db, double rms-> 3db. 6db I'd twice as loud to the human ear. As far as sound quality I think these aren't the most accurate subs but they definitely could be a lot worse. If you listen to lots of rap and boomy sounding bass, go with this sub, ported at 35hz in 1.5 to 2 cubic ft of box

This will do the trick with the right electrical n wire the two sub's down to 1,ohm this will do rated n ur sub's will sound amazing!!!

Literally any mono amp will do. If it's going to be paired up with this, then the cheaper, the better. I had mine hooked up to a really nice Alpine, it didn't help any.

I have a Pioneer GM-D8601 and it pushes this sub pretty hard. I would say go with a 1000 watt rms amp from Rockford, Memphis, or Soundstream. If you want a Pioneer amp, go with the GM-D9601.
