Gold Member Username: GlasswolfNorthWest, Michigan USA Post Number: 5713 Registered: Dec-03 | depending on budget.. look at JBL, MTX, Kicker, or Memphis for amplifiers. get a 50 watt x 4 @ 4 ohm amp for the components, and an amp around 1000-1200 watts x 1 (mono) for the subs. that'll do it. |
jake brady Unregistered guest | id like to stay under 1000 if i could... |
jake brady Unregistered guest | glass wolf how many ohms is that?? for the sub amp...? |
Gold Member Username: GlasswolfNorthWest, Michigan USA Post Number: 5743 Registered: Dec-03 | that'll depend on your subs. I'd go with a pair of 4 ohm subs, or a pair of dual 2 ohm coil subs. either will result in a mono 2 ohm load.. then look at an amp rated for around 1000-1200 watts RMS @ 2 ohms. |
Gold Member Username: GlasswolfNorthWest, Michigan USA Post Number: 5744 Registered: Dec-03 | if you go with the Kicker 1200 watt mono amp, and the 600.4 for components, you'll be well under a grand for both together with shipping, amp wiring kits and all. |
jake brady Unregistered guest | thanks a lot glass wolf....if u could ...which capicitor(dist block), wiring kits,fuses etc will i need ....and how will i wire the subs?..thanks....and will a Audiobahn A2300HCT be good for the subs or is the kicker better??? |
Gold Member Username: GlasswolfNorthWest, Michigan USA Post Number: 5773 Registered: Dec-03 | www.knukonceptz.com 1/0ga amp wiring kit would do the job. get a distribution block that splits down to 4ga. the 1200 watt amp needs a 110-120A fuse. the 600.4 would need about a 35-40A fuse capacitors are all pretty much the same if you feel a need for one. wire the subs in parallel. I'm not a fan of audiobahn. I don't like the company or their products. |
jake brady Unregistered guest | what subs do u sugest then...for that price and 1000 watts?... |
Gold Member Username: GlasswolfNorthWest, Michigan USA Post Number: 5794 Registered: Dec-03 | what's your budget for subs? if you like the audiobahn subs, keep em. I just don't think they sound that good at higher volumes and their reliability is questionable at best. |
jake brady Unregistered guest | well i got these for 200 for 2 of them on ebay...i oculd sell umm again... im willing to go up to 500 for 2...do u suggest anything like rockford or jl??? |
Bronze Member Username: KenwaPost Number: 29 Registered: May-04 | since you already have those subs you might as well keep them just dont plan on running them at the full RMS wattage, half should do just fine, and i would recommend a memphis MC1000D amp, it pushs 1100 watts at 1 ohm and i am very happy with it. Plus i only had to pay about $420 for it |
jake brady Unregistered guest | well im thinking about 2 jl w6v2s....what amp ould i run wiht that ..at what impedence |
Gold Member Username: GlasswolfNorthWest, Michigan USA Post Number: 5802 Registered: Dec-03 | the audiobahns will do fine with about 500 watts each for about 250 each for two 12" subs look at some of these: Alpine Type R Adire Shiva Resonant Engineering SE or SX Image Dynamics IDQ |
jake brady Unregistered guest | well what about the jl w6v2s?...are those any good...and what amp? |
Gold Member Username: GlasswolfNorthWest, Michigan USA Post Number: 5815 Registered: Dec-03 | the W6v2 is a consumate sub. amp choice is up to you |
