Bronze Member Username: SlicknickGrove, Oklahoma U.S. Post Number: 25 Registered: Jul-07 | alright, i can either go with 2 ohm or 4 ohm dual voice coil and i'd prefer to spend around $300, not any over $400 if you need any more info go here http://www.crutchfield.com/S-LU7AKA0Uz7d/cgi-bin/ProdView.asp?g=520&tab=features _and_specs&i=500SWR1242#Tab |

Bronze Member Username: SlicknickGrove, Oklahoma U.S. Post Number: 29 Registered: Jul-07 | i like that alpine mrp m650, but it says it only gets 400 watts if you have 1 sub hooked up, 600 with 2 subs, i'm only gonna have 1 sub the 12" r. that wont be enough power will it? http://www.etronics.com/product.asp?stk_code=alpmrpm650 |

Silver Member Username: Spivey17323Dunellen, New jersey United states Post Number: 320 Registered: Jun-07 | the m650 gives off 600 wats at 2 ohms. you have the 1242 model of the R correct? so it would be wired to 2 ohms and 600 watts is more than enough. any other questions pm me man ill get to it faster. oh yea and etronics is a great site. they ship fast and i have ordered off of there over 10 times and always got my package faster than expected brand new everything is legit. so u dont even have to worry about gettin screwed over |
