All i need is an amp.. or more if i need em..?? Can someone please help me out and let me know how this system will work out and let me know what kind of amps i will need....

 

Actually that not that great of a headunit at all. Would be the craps for running more then one amp. Here's a good deck, it has all your looking for and will run amps, Rockford Fosgate RFX9300. Good deck but its about $50 more then the Kenwood. But alot better of a deck.

 

The 8017 is a not a bad deck. But there is alot more options out there. Maybe if you could mention what all your wanting in a deck and your price range maybe we could help you find what your looking for.

 

well, i definetly want an mp3 player, and i dont want to go above 300 for a deck... and i think those subs are gonna cause me to have very expensive amps..

With peak power of 1000watts on each sub, doesnt that mean that i will need two 1000 watt amps to supply the power??

 

Peak power means the maximum amount of power it can take, find out what the RMS power is that the subs need... then you can base your amp decision on that.. ok so the subs only need 150-200 watts on a regular basis, so basically you can buy an amp which supplies 150-200 watts RMS. Or go with what im doing, Sony Mono Sub Amp (mobile ES) with a jl audio w6 12" ...

 

if the RMS is 150-200 then will one rockford fosgate rf-8002 be good enough to give me good sound on those subs??

specs for rockford fosgate rf-8002:

- 400 watts x 2 at 2 ohms
- 800 watts x 1 in bridged mode
- stereo, bridged mono or Tri-Way output
- 50-210 Hz high-pass/low-pass crossovers, 12 dB/octave
- wired remote control included for fingertip control of Punch Bass (boosts bass 0-18 dB, centered at 45 Hz)
- MOSFET power supply and output devices
- MEHSA mounting technology increases the heat transfer from the MOSFET output devices to the heat sink, for higher power output, lower operating temperatures, and greater reliability
- TOPAZ — noise-killing differential inputs that eliminate 80% of ground loop noise
- Trans•ana circuitry keeps preamp voltages low and signal paths simple for outstanding audio quality
- NOMAD — advanced protection circuitry for "intelligent" shutdown protection
- speaker-level inputs
- 60-amp fuse and fuse holder required
- dimensions: 18-7/16"W (14-7/8" without endcaps) x 2-7/16"H x 9-7/8"D

 

The RF 800.2 will power those RF Subs nicely. Go for it!

 

For the amps... there are 2-channel and 4 channel...

Which would be better for only 2 subs.. and should i have the bridged as one or as two??

 

Well first u need to let us know if your getting the dual voice coil subs because that can change a lot of stuff.

 

That part is really up to you. With a 2 channel amp you can bridge it into 1 channel. With a 4-channel amp it can be bridged to 2-channels. But with that much power(800watts RMS) I doubt you would ever use it as anything other than a Sub amp so I personally would go with 2-channel but it really doesn't matter.

 

Well, i dont really know anything about "channeling" so i was asking you guys what would be the best for the sound?

The subs have dual 4-ohm voice coils

 

Go with the 2channel amp and hook up the amp like this:

 

sweet, thanks alot guys, i appreciate ur help.
