Well we have been thinking for the next season and we would like to get some ideas for amps with lots of power and only are able to use one battery for Street Max 1-2. So thought I would put the question out there what would be a good high power amp that doesn't pull allot of amperage. We was using the Rockford T30001bd's 4 of them strapped worked good but need to get louder [Big Grin]

I too also face the same dilemma at this point in time I am leaning heavily towards hifonics I think the cyclops or the goliath would be hard to beat. But there are several good amps out there. Just my .02 [Big Grin]

We ll we have been concidering the 40.1 but after seeing BigDave have the kind issues he did we was thinking they pull to much on the battery since we would want to run 4 of them strapped. can you hook me up with some info on this and maybe some idea where we can look for deals on these amps.

I had no amplifier problems at finals. It was all in the battery. Amps never shut down. I checked everything friday night and it was fine. There were even a few people that heard me burp it friday night and it played fine. Got in there sat. morning and it wouldnt play. Voltage was dropping and shutting the head unit off. Amps are strong. Not that I want you guys to run them. [Wink] [Razz]

looked into the cactus amps kinda pricey for a low budget team but thanks for the idea they are very impressive amps.
