Hello,
I have 1 Momo MM12. I am unsure what amp will work nicely with it. I was thinking of the MB Quart Reference RAA1000. Or the Rockford Fosgate 601s. If you have any info on which is better please let me know. Thanks!

    MB Quart is owned by Rockford Fosgate so basically theyre going to be close to the same. Both would be very good.

    Another option is Polk's 300.2. you can get it at Sounddomain.com for $200. It easily makes 450 watts and would be a good match for the MM12.

    Cool, Thanks! So if I decide to go with a mono block MB quart refference, would I use ...250 watts RMS x 1 at 4 ohms or (500 watts x 1 at 2 ohms) ?

    You wont want to use a Class D amp with the MM12. Its a single 4 ohm voice coil sub so you can only wire it in 4 ohm mono which will only be 250. It would be best to use a 2 channel amp bridged 4 ohms mono.

    If you have a Frye's near you, I hear theyre clearing the out at like $100 each. Might be worth checking out if ones near you.
