New member Username: Mikegault7Post Number: 1 Registered: Aug-07 | I have a 4dr colorado and took out the back seat and have 2 of the 9510-44's and was wondering what amp would be good? I am planning for 2 spl boxes with a single seat in the middle, a lil bigger than spec to compensate for the polyfill to help with the low lows. I know car audio but Im far from an expert so I would like to know how I can make this the best that it can be. deck: alpine cda=7998 mtx 8000 components in front mtx coaxials in back doors for now alpine amp on highs thanks in advance mike G |

New member Username: Mikegault7Post Number: 3 Registered: Aug-07 | thanks, so if I have 2 750w rms, I need a 1500watt rms amp? Im prolly incorrect but I was thinking that you could use a 750 rms at 1 ohm and then wire the two 9510's to 1 ohm and they would both get 750... amp I even close? I was looking into an amp rated at 1000watts rms @ 1 ohm, what ever brand is capable. looking at diamond audio and memphis, read on here they are very stable at 1 ohm... thanks mike G |

Gold Member Username: 420alldaylongPost Number: 2561 Registered: Sep-06 | Yes 1500w If you did the 750w each sub would see 375w. You need around 750w to each sub. This is the way you would wire them. http://www.cardomain.com/shop/wooferwizard.pl?num_of_subs=2&impedance_of_subs=4o hm_dvc&x=135&y=10 The Diamond Audio D6 1500.1 would work sas well. But the Memphis MCD1500 is stable at 2ohm. That SAZ-1500D is a rock solid amp that would be my choice. What is your budget for a amp? |

New member Username: Mikegault7Post Number: 4 Registered: Aug-07 | I just wanted to see what would push them fully, then look for the 1 ohm stable amp. has to be 1 ohm stable since Im wiring 1 ohm, thanks for the link... have the wiring covered though... was hoping to get an amp for @ 300, less would be good, tuition was just due, lol. I like the sundown but 600 is twice my budget mike G |

You must have a proper charging electrical system 1st. Once the cap is drained (which takes like 1 second) your charging system now has more strain as it has to charge your battery, run your stereo AND re-charge the cap. A 2nd battery would be much more efficient than a cap and they would be around the same price. I am selling a amp if need be...$550 for 3krms |

Hell, even Rockford makes their version of the same amp, 1500x1 @ 1ohm(T1500-1bd). Keep in mind that nearing or surpassing the 1000watt mark usually requires more juice. If you're not interested in a cap, I'd recommend a higher output alternator or a special(or second) battery, say optima yellow top, or a Dry cell battery with an isolator. Or an Xstatic Batcap. I just ordered an Alumapro CAP, 5 Farad, personally, and will be upgrading to an Optima Yellow-top battery. http://www.optimabatteries.com/publish/optima/americas0/en/config/product_info/a utomotive/deep_cycle.html |

New member Username: Jones82joshuaYankton, SD USA Post Number: 3 Registered: Sep-07 | ouch, sounds like I need to get mine tested. anywho, it was just meant to be a placeholder til I got another MTX 1501D class amp, so I wouldnt be too disappointed. Thanks for filling me in |
