I'm going with a one sub hook up in a bass tube.It's a 12 inch Hifonics sub that can handle 600 watts RMS,will this sub do the job or is it too much? (2003 Suburban)

If it's got two 4ohm voice coils and you wire it for a 2ohm load to the amp, it should sound great. I have one 10 in a sealed box rated at 700w rms I'm running at a 2ohm load on the amp and it sounds excellent.

Well didn't look up specs but if your running 2 subs I wouldn't overrun the subs rms too much. I wouldn't put more than 1200 watts on them. Over powering even though they are underrated certain songs like jeezy will burn your subs. I am running 2 jlaudio jx1000/1 awesome amp. I blew my obsidian 18 with that amp. So they are 900 watts at 12v I'm running them at 32 hertz. Loudest system I have had. I would run 1 Rockford to two if that is 1250. I also run two batteries for the two amps. I think that is making all the difference running rf 3sixty.2 whole car is dymatted. Do 4 sealed. With the two amps. These subs sound better sealed. 4 sealed on 5000 watts will sound better than 2 ported on 5000. I do prefer my 32 hertz box but you can really see what they can do sealed. Better sq. Although the sq is flawless anyway. Best subs ever man for the money. Will eat an idmax

It will do just fine. Personally I would wire the sub's down to 2 ohms then connect them to the amp. Hook everything up and turn it all down. Go out to the middle of no where turn your stero up to the normal volume you want it at and then adjust the amp to that. By all means it will probably over power your sub's since 150rms isn't much and 500 max seems high for a comp? I'm guessing. When you set the amp keep a eye on the sub's and what there dosing find the sweet spot and limit the amp not the volume. Its safer this way. Best of luck :)

Nothing above 600 watts rms or nothing above a reg 1200 watt amp per sub.but watch wiring the sub notice if amp is momo or 2 ohm stable when bridged if not you mite blow amp or speaker if wired wrong parallel or in series. YouTube has great videos on wiring a 8ohm speaker

I don't own the car you do, but I can vouch the the sub can put some real bass into a sedan. It is also possibly small enough to stash near or under a seat. But overall bass performance will also relate to what you are listening to. Personally, for best results, I'd probably get two and make sure you have about 200 watts. But the sub can really hold its own most of the time.

If you have experience installing 12v car audio, this should give you no trouble. It has power, ground, and turn-on wire for activating the internal amp. Comes with plenty of speaker wire as well. Just keep in mind this is not a high powered sub so don't expect tons of thump. For small spaces, it will deepen and warm up the low frenquencies. If you want more bass, try a powered Bazooka 10" or the Blaupunkt powered 10". Mine was installed in a travel tralier and it works fine in that application.

Worked fine for me with bass control knob for 208. I have similar set up in an SUV and was worried 300 watts would under power subs but they sound great to me. Would 500 watts to the sub sound better? Technically perhaps they would but I am picky about sound and am happy with 300 watts which according to my research is within the preferred range of power. Plenty of power for moderate listening levels. If you are into rap and need to boom or listen at very high volume then perhaps not.

Mine does a great job powering 4- 6 inch speakers . But I dont have a sub installed . if you want a strong bass I would look into a mono amp for the sub and this one for the speakers

It depends! At 1 ohm what's the output of the amp? If it's 1 ohm stable and pushing at least 750 watts then you good. Also depends on how many woofers. I would suggest only running 1 sub off it!

Don't be concerned with the max watts but instead with the rms. I have a 300 watt rms rated amp on this sub in my ranger and it sounds great

This recommend spec are on there website but for loud deep bass I would a 3 cu ft box tune to 32 hz this sub handle way over 1500 watts but 1200 would be just enough for it

I am using this amp to power four 6x9 speakers. I think this amp will power two 12'' subs. If you want the subs to hit hard and the system to last, I would use a larger amp.

How is that good tho? It hold these 2 12 subs? Cause if so I just a new sub 1100 wats! Would it power up the subs more?

Keep in mind that you can't hear an amp. You should check your decibel output and match it up with the decibel output of your sub! This sub does sound very good and does have excellent response!

Size of the sub doesn't matter what matters is the rms rattings of the sub don't ever listen to the MAX WATTAGE or any term similar to that. Always look for the RMS ratting of the sub. Then compare that with the amp. I have these subs wired to two ohms with a Rockford p300-1 amp and they sound amazing. I believe the 12 in are still 150RMS so the 300 amp if it's RMS not max will do just as well.

Depends how powerful the subs are. I got 4 6 1/2 speakers each speaker is 90 RMS and I got 2 10 inch subs hooked up they are 150 RMS each. Everything sounds great and clear. You might just need to mess with the gains a bit. I definatly would buy this amp if I were in your position, but you just need to make sure everything is wired up currectly. This amp is great for its price! Good luck man hope it all works out!

Yea, Probably overkill. But, If you are a bass craver like me.......GO FOR IT! I also have a 15" Paradigm sub hooked up to my system. I can rock the house!
