are you wanting to buy from a local store or online? are you concerned about warranty issues? would you prefer a canadian site?

| So, lets figure out exactly what the vc configuration of your sub is so that we can choose the right amp.

| AUTOTEK 333 BTS is the most powerful of the ones you listed, we need to know an OHM load. My 333 is on ebay now. The PG is a nice amp also, just make sure you get the linedriver if you buy that amp, without the linedriver the amp will not play to its full potential |

| hmm. basically i bought it local, online . aside from being an SE all he said was its dual 4 ohm voice coils. How would I know if the PG has a line driver or is it an aftermarket add in? thank you guys for all the help, sorry for sounding like a noob, but i figure its easier to ask then to buy the wrong thing. oh as far as buying with a warrenty it would be nice but the rest of the system is being peiced together so i'm not as worrried about it. I figure the amp is a very key component as to how this part of my system will work so I better choose wisely.
