What type of amp do i need?

[evoryne]

Hey guys just got a free 12 inch Pioneer 450w impp sub and i was just wondering what type of amp i should get to get the most this sub? I dont know much about this subject so if you could include what rms wattage and other specs the amp should have that would be great.

thanks

What's the RMS on the sub? Initial guess would be a 200-250 watt amp. But if it's a cheap sub, you can get away with less.

Not sure but it says 150 watt nominal power handling

You should probably get a 500 rms watt amp. Kicker amps and rockford fosgate are always top of the line.

Some of the Alpines aren't bad either.
