Silver Member Username: SolacedagonyNew Jersey US Post Number: 456 Registered: Oct-04 | The Shivas have two voice coils, thus they actually are running 600W. 300W per coil. I think the old Shivas ran at 675W, however. You can "technically" run as many subs as you want off of one amp. If you're running 1 Shiva, you want 600W, two you'll want to run 1200W. The JL website has an entire list of wirings for one or more subs. I would give you the link at the JL website for the wirings, but it looks like it's down... www.jlaudio.com I think the RF website has the wiring wizard thing... Here it is: http://www.rockfordfosgate.com/rftech/wiringwizard.asp Good luck with everything. |
