Default Mono Amp V.S 2ch Amp

I'm going to push 1 10"sub in my Z and I can't decide which Amp to go with.

I haven't decided yet,
but it will be one of these

fosgate power stg1
Alpine type-R
JL10W3
JL10W6V2

First one is the Mono Amp, meant for the subs, and the second one is 2ch amp.

I can brigged the 2ch amp to power 1 10" and later, when I change my car, or if I want more sub, I can simply just add the sub. however, Little more complex and expansive than mono amps.

so.. what would you do if your in my situation and what kind of amp would you suggest??

Budget on the amp is around 200~400

Thanks.

Looks like your offered choices are subs not amps....Are you asking opinions on what amp to use with the listed subs?

with the budget of the amp being 200 to 400 dollars,,,there is many options..I guess preference would help also. I am running all Alpine. I really like my M650 mono/sub amp. 600w at 2ohm's is perfect for me. I am running the Alpine type s subs in the understrut zenclosure. It really sounds amazing. But, depends on what sound you are looking for. I know the sound from the JL 10w6 will be much different than the Alpine type s.

Can anyone offer anymore suggestions?

i would suggest a mono amp regardless of what sub you buy over a 2 channel


are you gonna run 1ohm or 2ohm


most mono amps are 2ohm stable

and if you wanna run 1 ohm than you need an amp that is 1 ohm stable

how mnay watts do you want rms


i know you want to spend $ 200 to $400

let me know how many watts you need and what ohm you need

I want more than 3~500RMS and I'll stick with mono 2ohm amp
