kx800.4 for subs?

Has anyone ever used this amp on their subs? It seems like a really good deal, but I just wanted to get any feedback you guys have.

btw: I'll be pushing two JLW3v2 12's

Thanks

i have this amp. its okay if u wanna power a sub that uses like 300 RMS.

i think JL12 mite want more power. i plan to use two of the channels bridged to power one 10 inch sub.. and use the other two channels for components

um it puts out 400 rms into a 4 ohm load. and i have one. it's broken under my bed if you want it... was good while it lasted, no subsonic filter though.

that'd be a big yeah... get a mono amp they pretty much all have 'em. maybe a 600.1 from kicker or like a bx1000 from rockford would work for you. hifonics also makes some decent not expensive mono amps

What about the Fosgate 1001bd? I can get it for around $340 or so shipped off of ebay

btw: This may sound like a stupid question, but do mono subwoofer amps have one + and one - output, or two of each (like for a DVC woofer) ?

depends on what brand you get...rockford amps have only one + and one - speaker output....mtx on the other hand has a pair of output terminals that are paralleld interally...so if you put a 4 ohm speaker on each output...its a 2 ohm load.

yeah i meant 1001bd when i said bx1000. the bx1500 is a hifonics one i was thinking of, would be a bit over kill for you though. good price though, check it out.
