What's a good amp to power a single 12" Infinity Kappa Perfect sub?
Specifications
Power Handling, Peak: 1400W
Power Handling, RMS: 350W
Sensitivity: 96dB (In car)
Frequency Response (± 1.5dB): 18Hz - 150 Hz
Frequency Response (±3dB): 18Hz - 150Hz
Impedance: 4 Ohms
Mounting Depth: 6-1/2"
Would this amp work pretty well?

I have heard the new Rockford Stuff sucks. I have a Tsunami Amp I may want to sell. It is powering my Idmax At 2ohms I think it puts out about 700 watts. I will let it go for $200.00. Let me know and I can get you the specs on it.
First of, car audio is my job. I am a mera certified first class installer.
Here are a couple options.
Eclipse PA4212.
This amp puts out a true 400 watts rms in bridged 4ohm mono. I have installed about 50 of these and it is a great amp for the money. Also, Eclipse makes just about the cleansest sounding amps on the market (Yes, there are cleaner amps out there, Got about $2000+ for a mcintosh?).
Pheonix gold titanium 600.2
This is a great amp. It puts out 600 wats rms at 4 ohms bridged. The problem is that it is kind of expensive.
there are a few more good amps out there, i have first hand experience connecting those 2 to infinity perfects. I have connected many others to those subs and they just dont sound the same.
My first choice would be the eclipse amp because it will power that sub beautifully and cost alot less then the pheonix gold.
If you dont want to use one of these amps, please dont buy sony, pioneer, power acoustic, audiobahn, etc. with those you are just paying for a name and a fancy cover. There is no technology there.

i don't have a kappa perfect but i do have a kappa 12. and i'm using an alpine mrt-v320 v12 amp to it. i have it bridged and its rated at 220 rms at 4 ohms. it does a good job.
a friend of mine was running a 400 watt ppi amp to his perfect and it beat hard.

the perfect is a DVC with two 4 ohm coils. if wired parrallel u will need a amp that can handle a 2 ohm load at the rms of 350 watts or better.
to be honest a amps cost doesnt make much difference. its what the amp is actually putting out is what really matters.
people will tell u to go with name brands this is because
1. they are usually rated accurately
2. they will probly last longer
3. a long ;asting good reputation
i would go with a mono amp from these companies
mtx
alpine
pioneer
jl
umm a few other brands
i currently have a mono lightning audio and i actually like it, so if your on a budget look into them but dont trust its ratings. just my 2 cents
oh once again make sure if u have the dual 4 ohm version get a amp that can handle a 2 ohm load............................. if not beware
