Going by this chart:


For a single 12w3v2 I would try to find an amp that puts out about 250-300 watts RMS. Maybe like a JL 250/1. I'm sure some of the experts around here can make some other recommendations too. What's your budget?

the 250/1 pushes it very well. I think thats what most places will tell you. That is what I have.

yeah, 250/1 or 500/1 either way u can't go wrong. But if you are lookin to upgrade your sub later, then get the 500/1

if the 12w3v2 is a dual 4 ohm version, an e1400d will give you 400 watts into a single 2ohm load. a good amount of power, and a little less $.
