do you own that sub already or are you going to order it?

Whats your budget for amp?

If you already have that sub I would go with this amp instead:

I dont really have too much of a high budget but I have some room. I thought that the combined power at ~1 ohm should be 900 because thats what my subs max rms is at?

that hifonics doesn't actually put out what it says

that sub rms is listed at 300

if you have a little more room for that amp then you should get the first one I linked or this rockford

That rockford is looking good, but I am trying to power three and no I havent bought the subs yet. Might go down to a two sub system

ohh i didnt see you wanted to power 3. ..

Personally I would rather have one fully powered sub than three heavily under powered subs

Three subs are tricky with wiring configurations

if you get three dual 2 ohm subs you can wire to 1.3 ohms but that would be the lowest you can do

but those subs are single 4 ohm so I think the only safe configuration you can do is each sub ran at 4 ohm if you had three. That would be a big power decrease.

Yeah now thinking about it, 3 subs kind of could be overkill. What would be a good amp to run two of the [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] ?

High end:

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

This NVX amp is great, I've actually owned one

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

This hifonics and that nvx amp will leave you with some headroom

Low End:

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

This audiopipe is decent but if you have the gains up it will make some dirty power and the subs wont like it at all

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

same goes with this hifonics, you'll probably need to turn this amp close to 100% to get those subs groovin and movin the way you want so keep that in mind.

alright thanks for all your help! Im thinking about getting the 2 HDS210's with the NVX JAD1200. Is there a specific amp wiring kit I am going to need for the NVX?
