Amp for single sub setup

[BassHead42069]

Hi, I'm working on a single sub setup and I'm having trouble figuring out what amp to buy. I have a Rockford Fosgate Punch 12" P3 4-Ohm DVC Sub. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

have you considered sticking with the Rockford Fosgate brand for your amplifier. Find one that will power your sub. Rockford Fosgate recommends The Punch P1000X1bd mono amplifier.

Just wondering what the difference would be? Would it be just for the esthetics?

Would it be better to get that or to bridge a P500X2?

You want to get a monoblock class D amp for a sub, way more efficient.
