Is there anything else within the same price area that you would recommend instead? What about an amp kit, any particular brand i should stick with or stay away from or anything like that? thanks =) |

Post Number: 3014 Registered: Jul-05 | cool , i saved u from blowing up your sub -lol wrms is what u need to look @ & match your sub's ohm load to the amp wrms @ a given load . If your amp putrs out a little over what u need thats fine but putting a 1000wrms amp on a 600wrms sub is asking 4 the sub 2 die shortly...... |

You're more in danger of under powering that sub then over powering it. I would also be VERY careful on choosing an amp that says it's one ohm capable. A lot of the time the subs impedence will drop below what is stated. The d3600.1 is not that great on handling one ohm loads, whereas the d61000.1 is a much better choice for the application. |
