I just ordered a infinity reference sub for dirt cheap. The sub has a rms of 300 watts and 1200 peak. I have a cheap profile 600 watt mono amp. The sub is dvc so im gonna wire it parralel into 2ohms. My amp at 2 ohms pushes 420watts rms supposedly. Will this damage my sub? will it blow or damage the sub even though its 1200 watts peak? Are there any negatives in this beside running the amp hotter? I know profile has a reputataion of not meeting their specs so its probably less then 420watts coming out from the amp. Any info would be appreciated thanks.

if you have this amp you are only going to get a 4 ohm bridge with that one 12 (300 rms suggested instead of 450) you would have been ok with the two ohm power because they are over rated on power but at least your amp shouldnt get as hot

you said that was a dual voice coil i missed that are you sure it is dual? If so you will get the 450 rms suggested but it is lower you will be fine just adjust the settings properly on the amp...i listened to one of these in a honda civic on a bazooka 500 watt i think.... youll be pleased for the price

Thanks for the info.

The amp I have is this http://www.millionbuy.com/prfca600m.html

And my sub is this, and yes its dual voice coil. I order the 1232"dvc" version , not the 1230 single 4 ohm one.
