What would be the best amp for a Pioneer Premier TS-W5102SPL 12″ Subwoofer?
Welcome to the wonderful world of car audio! Good amplifiers are in the range of $0.50 – $1 per watt RMS so the price you found is about right. If you want power, it’s going to cost you. However, the expense doesn’t stop there…. If your total system power is a 1200 watts RMS or more you will need to: 1. Upgrade the alternator to a high output alternator 2. Upgrade to a heavy duty deep cycle battery 3. Upgrade the “Big 3” – that is to replace (or add to) the power wire between the battery and alternator, the ground from the battery to the chassis and the ground strap from the engine/tranny to the chassis with at least 2 AWG wire. Failure to do this will result in you replacing them anyway as the alternator will eventually fail. Here is a guide that will calculate what size alternator and power wires you need as well how to set the gain http://www.datafilehost.com/download.php… You’ll need Microsft Exce
