Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 3308 Registered: Dec-05 | if you need 1 ohm stable amps check this: kicker kx 1200 Memphis modelss on ebay. ED nine 1 |
|
Bronze Member Username: Chevyfan502Post Number: 23 Registered: May-06 | im using it for 2 DD2512a's.....and wire them to 2 ohm, so i need somethin that puts out 1000rms x 1 at 2ohms or better.... |
|
Bronze Member Username: Chevyfan502Post Number: 24 Registered: May-06 | k now how would i wire 2 4ohm DD2512a's to a memphis MCD1000 to get the 1100rms at 1 ohm?... |
|
Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 3316 Registered: Dec-05 | ok. check this list: 1- JBL GTO 1201.1 rated to put 1114w at 2 ohms, but it really puts more- 2- Alpine MRD 10005 3- MTX 1501D (underrated) 4- Clarion DPX 11500(new amp and very cheap). 5- JBL BP 1200 (hard to find a new one, but an used one can be amazing for your subs) 6- ED nine1( puts between 900-1100w) That's a good list. Decent amps with decent prices. |

Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 3317 Registered: Dec-05 | Trevor, you can get the version you want, DVC 4 ohm or DVC 2 ohm. That's your choice. Those two lists over there can give you some ideas of what to get for 350$ |
|
Bronze Member Username: Chevyfan502Post Number: 25 Registered: May-06 | isnt the memphis good? says 1100rms at 1ohm, and another dumb question...is 4 guage heavy enough for that amp?... |
|
Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 3322 Registered: Dec-05 | oh sorry, this forum is slow, i couldn't see your posts up there. The memphis is a great choice, a nice amp and underrated. If i were you i'd go with 2 AWG. I don't think 4 AWG will flow that amount of current. A good website for wires is www.knukonceptz.com About the wiring coils question. Wire them in parallel to create a 1 ohm load. Go to www.the12volt.com and hit the link woofer wiring. There's a diagram so you can do it better/easier |

Silver Member Username: Night_mirageAmman, Jordan DDs dealer i... Post Number: 600 Registered: Jan-06 | juliob , Its the First time u wrote a wrong info . JBL GTO is 2 ohm stable and he need 1 ohm . See said before his sub's are DVC 4 ohm . I have one DD2512 wired on zx1000.1 , But ur sub's can handle more than 1000w . They said in DD's website 600w , So u are giving each sub 500-550 RMS . I would say 1000w for each sub BUT if u know what u r doing . Else , I would say Kx1200.1 Will be PERFECT for your SUB's . And u will LOVE your Install.. |

Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 3339 Registered: Dec-05 | night, i didn't see his post when i posted the info. That's why i put another list for 1 ohm stable amps, but thanks. |

Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 3343 Registered: Dec-05 | yeah, they're hard to find. check www.woofersetc.com chauncey, you might look alpine PDX line. Very expensive BTW |

Bronze Member Username: Chevyfan502Post Number: 30 Registered: May-06 | actually i dont have the subs yet, getting them soon so i am finding an amp for them right now....i thought for some reason i could only get the dd's in 4ohm, somebody that supposedly knew alot about dd told me that, but i will get 2ohm now that i kno....and the amp doesnt have to be at 1ohm, i just want it to push at least 1000rms at either 1 or 2ohms....was goin to get the memphis but i dont use credit cards i just buy by money order which i cannot use for the memphis MCD1000 that puts out the 1100rms at 1ohm i found on ebay....so im deciding if i should wait for another one to come up on ebay....or get the alpine MRD 1005 right now....or besides them 2 im not sure ....like i said i would like to stay around $350 shipped, but a lil more is fine....(WANT RELIABLE WITH GOOD BACKING/CUSTOMER SERVICE SO IF IT BREAKS I CAN GET IT FIXED...AND GOOD SQ) also dont neccesarily want an amp thats power hungry because i might just be using 2 batteries w/stock alternator....lol thanks again NEED HELP DECIDING BAD :P |
|
Silver Member Username: Night_mirageAmman, Jordan DDs dealer i... Post Number: 601 Registered: Jan-06 | kx1200.1 or PG Xenon 1200.1 Would be the Best Choices 4 your sub's .. And kx would be about 300$ shipped . |
|
Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 9697 Registered: Jul-05 | honestly i would get a 1500wrms amp instead since those subs can easily handle more power ...... |
|
Gold Member Username: LbecknerTulsa, Ok Usa Post Number: 1267 Registered: Oct-04 | FYI the MTX 1501D only puts out about 1000 watts. I bought one and the birth sheet said 1000 watts. |
|
Silver Member Username: Tdawg30Ohio USA Post Number: 511 Registered: Jun-06 | they rate their products at 12.5v though and Trevor........kenny on here is selling an mc1000 for 280 shipped. D@mn good amp for the price and money |

Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 3344 Registered: Dec-05 | http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/MTX-Thunder-1501D-Mono-Amp-Amplifier-1500-Watt-Ca r_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ38638QQihZ003QQitemZ130046261104QQrdZ1 Lucas, is obvious that you don't know what to say and you twist the reality just to annoy me. I told ya the MTX is measured at 12.5V and then they have ratigns at 14.4V. At 14.4V the amp puts 1500w rms. Did you know that? i guess you don't. |

Gold Member Username: B101USA Post Number: 3732 Registered: Sep-05 | memphis 1000d... i still think is 1 of the best 1000ds... and is 1ohm stable! and I also will put money it eats a JL 1000d! |
|
Bronze Member Username: Chevyfan502Post Number: 31 Registered: May-06 | is it possible i can find a new KX1200.1 for under 400 shipped brand new with warranty from ebay or somewhere else? |
|
Bronze Member Username: Chevyfan502Post Number: 32 Registered: May-06 | and that amp is stable at 1ohm right? not because i need 1 ohm neccessarily but thats where it puts out its peak 1200rms...im not sure on the memphis now, so if it is possible for the kicker or memphis i am going to get the Alpine mrd1005, which should push them pretty good... |

Bronze Member Username: Chevyfan502Post Number: 33 Registered: May-06 | if it isnt* |

Gold Member Username: Van_manBoston South, MA Post Number: 1203 Registered: Mar-06 | Heres a PG for 350. Just listed. idk if its good or bad model, just throwing it out there. http://boston.craigslist.org/bmw/ele/233031004.html |
|
Gold Member Username: LbecknerTulsa, Ok Usa Post Number: 1270 Registered: Oct-04 | they don't test it at 14.4v only at 12.5, so do you know for sure that it will put out that much? No, because you've never owned one juliob. I have. And I had it tested. It put out 1252 at 14.4v. Thats pretty shy of 1500. Thats why I don't recommend that amp, but you could just listen to juliob. Maybe he'll talk you into a spiffy Lanzar amp. That would be AWESOME!!!!! |
|
Silver Member Username: Night_mirageAmman, Jordan DDs dealer i... Post Number: 602 Registered: Jan-06 | U can find kx1200.1 NEW for under 400$ , Yah Look @ ebay .. As Rovin Said they can handle over 1500w , But u have to set ur gain correctly .. |
|
Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 3345 Registered: Dec-05 | yeah right lucas, i think you've never seen that amp in person. Is obvious that you don't know about car audio and yeah i'll keep buying lanzar like you with your l7s. |

Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 3348 Registered: Dec-05 | Again. |
|
Bronze Member Username: Chevyfan502Post Number: 34 Registered: May-06 | k thank you....so the kx1200.1 will be stable at 1ohm right? |
|
Bronze Member Username: Chevyfan502Post Number: 35 Registered: May-06 | and Night Mirage u said i can find one for under 400 new, is that including shipping? because there isnt one on ebay new right now....like i said i would like it to be under 400 shipped w/warranty....thanks |

|
Gold Member Username: LbecknerTulsa, Ok Usa Post Number: 1274 Registered: Oct-04 | Juliob you found a pic of my ride on google? wow thats amazing. Marc the black amp on top is a kx800.4 the one under it is a kx2500.1. I built the boxes this way so that I can still get to my spare tire which is under the floor between the boxes. Yeah its underpowered. Thos subs are 750 rms, but I heard that they can handle twice that. I already had the amp when I built the system. I might get another one later. Its not done yet. I have to make a shround to cover all the wires around the amp and I'm going to put speaker grills on. And if you notice the deck in the front doesn't have trim around it yet. I had to cut the vents out to install the AVN6600. Hey juliob i'm still waiting for pics of your install. |

Silver Member Username: Night_mirageAmman, Jordan DDs dealer i... Post Number: 603 Registered: Jan-06 | Hey .. Whats that all about !!!! BTW ,Juliob : Sonicelectronix Do not have kx1200.1 right Now . Its finished . U can keep looking @ ebay , U will find one . |

Juliob always gives members a good info's and he is helpful person . So making him SHUT-UP (Not ur Business) If u have anything good u wanna say it Go on . If u don't Just keep it in your keyboard. |

Gold Member Username: LbecknerTulsa, Ok Usa Post Number: 1276 Registered: Oct-04 | juliob is annoying and talks trash and can't back it up. im just asking him to back it up for once. |

Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 3357 Registered: Dec-05 | yeah now you want to help me and be "my internet friend" kinda g4y lol! Lucas i have JL subs ok? what's your damn problem. Yeah, you got some l7s, that's what you like but i really like lil systems, i don't care too much about spl cuz eventually you will lose the hearing ability and SPL systems, increase hearing loss. Too bad sonicelectronix doesn't have the KX anymore, in the past, a lot of people said it was a good place to buy and they always have 1 or 2 year warranty (not bad at all). And aman, yeah i always try to help, some people recognize and give credits to others that deserve it. IDK about you lucas, you just come here to ditch lanzar and talk sh1t about my opinions. Get a better life and help other guys by giving good advices. That will make you a "better person" lol! |

U know my lil system is good, you just want to see it cuz you got some L7s and wanna make fun of me, keep trying. I have this in my ride 2 JL 12 subs Lanzar vibe 1800d (and you hate it for only 145$ 1200-1400w rms at 1 ohm with 4X30A fuse and has more than a year) 5 channel alpine MRV f352 for mids and highs Now keep talking and annoying people. |

Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 3365 Registered: Dec-05 | so what quintin, just because i don't have 3k rms system IDK how a 3k rms system sounds??? BTW those orions H2 are just loud, they don't have SQ at all, but they're very cheap. And yeah i don't have a loud system, who cares, you? then STFU |
|
Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 3366 Registered: Dec-05 | quitin, WTF are you talking about loudness if you have a 1200w rms system? i just want to know one thing? why do you care too much about my system. Just concentrate in your system and try helping other people. Lucas F*ck you. |
|
Bronze Member Username: QbenjaminFlorida Post Number: 47 Registered: Nov-06 | LOL, you say that the ORION's are cheap? What's next Orion makes bad paroducts? I guess I should have bought the Lanzar products instead right? LMFAO |
|
Bronze Member Username: QbenjaminFlorida Post Number: 48 Registered: Nov-06 | LOL, you say that they Orion's are cheap? I hope you mean in price, but I guess you would say Orion makes bad products since you have such high quality Lanzar crap. LMFAO. |
|
Bronze Member Username: QbenjaminFlorida Post Number: 49 Registered: Nov-06 | I don't care about your system at all. You aren't on my level. Get your weight up before you try to talk trash about anybody else's system. BTW, were still waiting on your pics. LMAO. And also, I used to have a very loud system, 2 of the JL1000/1, each one hooked up to each sub, but they kept overheating since my system is wired down to one ohm. When they were on though, it was a constant headache the db levels I was hitting. So, I had to downgrade. Long story short, I know what a loud system sounds like from personal use, and my system still blasts now even with the 1200w rms amp. Again, post your pics of your system before you hate on anyone elses'. |
|
Gold Member Username: LbecknerTulsa, Ok Usa Post Number: 1280 Registered: Oct-04 | I'm at work right now, but I'll check out the video when I get home. LMAO juliob is a LIGHTWEIGHT. He needs to stop trying to help people based off of his best 'guess'. I can't beleive that he said that about ur system when he has JL w0's and a Lanzar amp. I am rolling over laughing. Stupid kid. |
|
Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 3367 Registered: Dec-05 | well, then stop talking about my system lucas if i'm a lightweight. Quintin i'll tell you something. If you had a JL 1000/1 and it was overheating, why didn't you run it at 4 ohms or matched the gain properly?? and instead you bought a 1200w rms amp, that's something stupid. Lucas, now you're a better person right? STFU you don't know sh1t about car audio. Many people here knows a lot and they have 1 12 or even 2 10 with low power amps. But i guess you picked me just to annoy. Keep the good work. |

Gold Member Username: James1115Ct Post Number: 7404 Registered: Dec-04 | good point julio! thats the beauty of the JL what power you would get at 1 ohm you would get at 4ohms. Orion makes great products also, not as good as they used to be but still good. I disagree with your statement "He claims he knows sooooooo much about loud systems, when he doesn't even have one, but that is the joy about the internet, every clown can claim whatever they want. " Just because someone is not running a SPL system doesnt mean they don't kow about the products that are used in aiding high db #'s. I am only running 400 watts @ 12 volts to my comp's,rear's and sub but that doesnt mean I have never run a SPL set-up. Most bassheads don't stay basshead's they eventually turn to SQ, there is an exception for competitor's but even most guys who compete run SQ systems when they are not competing. There is no need to E-Fight no one ever win's, its a waste of time and pointless! let's just all get along while we are here. You can say what you want to respond to me negatively I have seen and done a whole lot in this world and not much you can say can offend me. |
