IIRC... no they're not.
My first system just seeing what you guys think... I have 2 10quot; audiobahns 2 12quot; audiobahns, 3000 watt quantum amp.
I WANT TO PUT A QUANTUM AUDIO COZMIK SERIES 2,000 WATTS (1,000 RMS @ 1 OHM) MONO-BLOCK ON (2) 12" POWER ACOUSTIK 2,400 WATT EACH DUAL 4 OHM SUB WOOFER.....
WHAT DO YALL THINK ..
they are both mediocre at best, flea market grade, bottom rung brands that are very over rated, you would be lucky to get half of the advertised RMS wattage and it would more than likely be distorted (the main cause of sub damage)
you need to stick with CEA-compliant brands- which means that the amps have been tested and produce or exceed the advertised RMS wattage with minimum distortion and the subs can handle their advertised RMS wattage also
here are the top CEA-compliant brands
Alpine (highly recommend)
Bazooka (don't like their subs)
Blaupunkt (don't like their subs)
Clarion
Eclipse
Infinity (highly recommend)
JBL
JL Audio (very good but over priced)
Kenwood (don't like their subs)
Kicker (the best in my opinion)
MTX (highly recommend)
Pioneer
Polk Audio (highly recommend)
Rockford Fosgate (highly recommend)
Sony (don't like their subs)
it will sound like a 300watts RMS system at best and/or distorted as hell
Hi, I have two kicker 12" L5 subs. They are 4 ohm each and 600 rms each. I was thinking of getting a quantum audio 4 channel 2400 watt amp mainly because of the price tag. Is this an ok choice for these subs?
You don't need a 4 channel amp. People usually buy those for the inside speakers mids/highs.

Beta Series 2 ohm mono Amplifier with class "AB" circuitry, rated at 14.4 volts
QSINK heat management system, Buffered pre-amp input circuitry
1 x 750 watts @ 4 ohms, 1 x 1500 w @ 2 ohms
Full range RCA line outputs for easy daisy chain configuration, Variable input level control, DC-DC PWM power supply,DC short circuit protection, Bass remote capability, Fuse type ATC 4 x 20 amp
Continuously variable 12dB low pass-x-over, Continuously variable subsonic filter( 15-55Hz) (Mono Amps), Direct-connect integrated speaker and power wire terminals
I know there are plenty of strong amps out there, but what amp would really compliment these subs?
That Fosgate amp will compliment anything!
There is another brand of amp called "Linear" (NOT ultra linear, and not just "a linear amplifier"...I'm taking a brand name). They are really hard to find, but they are awesome. I haven't even found any with google (because of the circuit with the same name).
I'm also a big fan of US Amps, & Mmats. They seem to be in your price range.
I also have a custom ported box they go in that was built acording to specs...how do io hook up the dual out puts on speakers then to amp...+ - - +
Wiring them in a series/parallel combination would probably be your best bet.
Here's a diagram. Use option 2.
