New member Username: PiosharkPost Number: 2 Registered: Jul-06 | Hi, I own an '06 Ranger (extended cab) and am wondering which 12" sub would be most suitable to install. Have a Pioneer P6800MP head unit hooked up to factory speakers. My question is whether I should use my Kenwood Amp KAC-S726 which is (100Wx2 RMS @4ohm, 150Wx2 RMS @ 2ohm, BRIDGED 300Wx1 RMS @ 4 ohm) WITH my Rockford Punch Stage 1 (this years model) it is rated 300W peak/ 150W RMS (4 ohm) OR My Rockford POWER 200 a1 amplifier (100Wx1 RMS @4 ohm, 200x1 RMS @ 2 ohm) with a Rockford Punch FRP 1212 (older DVC sub) which is 800W peak/ 400W RMS @ 4ohm I only want to install one sub in the back of my truck, any advice on this would be greatly appreciated. Why does the rockford amp rated at such low wattage?? This amp was used to power two DVC's in the past, wouldnt it of been underpowering them, everyone says that isnt good for subs?? Anyways was wondering what would sound better for a truck. Thanks. |

I'd go with the old school Rockford, and sell both amps and buy a better amp that runs at 600@4 omhs. my opinion. good luck |
