Hi All,

Recently bought DLS RW10i from stu and now looking for an amp to power the thing,

Had a trip to source sound today and the guy there pointed out an amp costing £250 and stated that it is the ideal starting point.

However, just had a browse on caraudiodirect and found an amp for £80 that seems like it will power the sub.

the spec is as follows:

  • Max. Power Output of 800W
  • 250 Watts x 1 Ch RMS Power at 4 ohms
  • 400 Watts x 1 Ch RMS Power at 2 ohms
  • Class-D Circuit
  • Protection Circuitry (Thermal/Short Circuit/Overload/DC Offset)
  • Speaker Input Connector
The sub is rated at 250 W RMS and has 2 ohm impedence.

Can somebody confirm whether this is the case and that a cheaper amp is still capable of powering this sub.

Thanks in advance,

Sam
