    ok well ive been into car audio for close to 4 years now and know enough to install most things and can fairly well adjust my amps..but i have a question that me and my friend whos been into it way longer disagree on as i wanna buy a bigger amp(1000-1500), but right now i have a crunch g2150 600watt 2ch amp powering my 2 12" hifonics brutus dvc subs that are 600rms/watts each.
    And my friend says the amp is puttin out 600 watts rms(so 300 per sub) but i disagreed cuz ik that the # on the amp is almost never what its puttin out.so i looked up its specs and the rms rating on that amp is 150-500watts not 600 but the amp does say 600watts when wired to a 4ohm load which my subs are so am i right or is my friend??

    Also,how big of an amp would i need to run the full 600 rms to each sub,i was thinking that id need a an amp puttin out 1200rms but idk. as i am doing a new set up in the achieva cuz well the bass i get from the one functioning stock 6x9 is sooooo awsome but i think my subs can do better ..so my plan was to run the 4x6s in the doors off my jvc deck,run the 6x9s im gonna use off the old mtx 400watt 4ch amp that i have and then run my subs off the crunch 600watt 2 ch amp till i can aquire a bigger amp(i loved how they sounded with the 1400 i had on em b4 the damn thing died )..all powered by 0 gauge from the battery to a distribution block on my box then 4 gauge to the amps and this same set up for the ground.
    any suggestions are welcome because well..i still dunno 1/4 of what i prolly shpould bout this stuff
