What amp and subs for a 3-10 set up?
Tuesday, February 15, 2005 12:34 PM
Ok guys i'm going to start my my stereo upgrade.

I'm yanking my 1 Clarion 10 and Alpine amp.

Now what are some good 10's and whats a good amp to drive them on a budget?

My clarion sub sounds awesome (IMO) very accurate. I might run Clarion subs again, but whats a decent amp to drive them?

And do i need more than one amp for 3 subs?

Awhile ago I had 3 10 inch mtx's and a 2 channel kenwood amp. Bridged the amp and those things sounded really good for only about $280

why do you want 3 tens? you would be just as loud with 2 12's....and not have to worry about weird impendence's and wiring issues. not to many people make 6 ohms subs.

Go with 3 MTX thunder 6000's 8-12 ohm (depending on what amp you get)

Amp...MTX 8100D $650

but if you get an amp like that you might as well get 6 10" thunder 6000's 12 ohm. They will give you a 2 ohm load and you will be pushing 2200watts RMS. Thats the setup I had in my first car.
