Is A18001DT a good amp
I'm getting ready to get a new system and was wondering what you guys thought aobut the A18001DT audiobahn amp or is there another amp i should buy? Maybe should i buy two amps? I will probably be pushing 2 AWIS12P subs.
Please let me know

the amp puts out 1800w @ 1ohm, the subs handle 2000rms each. so, you would only be getting 900w to each sub. i am not sure what the amp actually puts out because most places list this power as the max and one listed is as the rms. in my catalog, this is the max power, so the true rms power is a lot less. this will sound good, but no where near as loud as it could be. i would suggest another brand amp actually. you made a good choice in picking the immortal series subs, them and the eternal series is the only thing on audibahns line that is good because they are made by another company. their other subs blow easily within the normal specs and their amps are overrated and they overheat like crazy.
Thanks,

There are amps out there that put out 4000WRMS @1ohm, I've seen some from USAmps at ebay, but they cost alot. If you want to use the audiobahn you have, you would need to buy two, one for each sub.

Why buy two. If they run seperately, on their own amp, the impedence drops from 1 ohm to two, therefore cutting the RMS power in half. There would be no audible difference between using one amp for both at 1 ohm, and one amp for each at 2 ohms. Well, that is except for using one amp would leave more money in your pocket.
