I'm just after something cheap to run my twin 10" subs and wondering which one of these would be best?

(This is just temp. as I don't have allot of money to spend right now and am planning to do a total overhaul of the sound system next year)

I don't know much about amps and such either... The amp I had was a real crap box (Given to me by a friend) and blew up on me a week ago...

Thanks

EDIT: Note I have edited out ebay links already...

to run subs, you'd usually have to bridge it, which mean, you make 2 channels in to 1 channel per sub.

So the 4 channels become 2 channels?

So the last amp is my best bet? Power wise and quality wise too?

I was looking at the second one too... But eh' I dunno anything about amps...

2nd one you'd be able to run 1 sub off the 2nd one.
well you can run 2 subs off it, but you'd get **** all out of the amp.

quality is okay on the 3rd one.
for $10, you can't go wrong.
lol.

Maybe thats why my current amp crapped itself... I was running twin subs off the 2 channel amp that was pink and had no brand or any info of the amp on it anywhere lol...

Thanks for the help :thumbsup:

I honestly have no clue... I remember my dad bought them when I was a kid back in 1999 or something... Since then all the stickers have fallen off...

They were sitting in my garage for over 5 years until I bought my 3rd gen prelude 2 months ago...

I never had the money to buy new sound equipment so I got a head unit off ebay, an amp and some 6" 's for the front from a mate and the old twin subs from my garage...

Ghetto Sound system on a budget :thumbsup:

Youd be better off running some new rear speakers and tuning the system. Using subs from last century might cause some problems, and they definately wont sound as good as they did back then if theyve only recieved tlc from the garage.
