Silver Member Username: HdubbFarmington, Nm Usa Post Number: 275 Registered: Nov-04 | sony is know for there name. they xplode. but if the amp actually puts out 1600 rms. is that rms? if not then no. go with a kicker sx1250 or 1200.1 they will do the trick. but if it does than it might depending on the impedence of the L7s. is the amp 1 ohm stable or two? |
Bronze Member Username: Sparkey2027Barnstaple, England England Post Number: 16 Registered: Dec-04 | a sony 1600w amp actually puts out 900w rms @ 2 ohms. which means its delivering 450w to each sub. i think those subs are 750w rms each. the amp will do but it would be an idea to get a better one |
Silver Member Username: JeremycKunsan AfbSouth Korea Post Number: 394 Registered: Jun-04 | Keep in mind guys the 12W7 is a 3 ohm sub. So if your going to run 2 of them it would probably be better to have an amp that is 1 ohm stable. Bye the way that sony amp will not do good at 1 ohm. Glass knows at what ohm rating the amp sees 1 and 2 ohm. I beleive there is a split in between some where but I am not sure exactly what it is. |

Silver Member Username: Sploosh56Ohio Post Number: 476 Registered: May-04 | That Sony amp will not push those subs. Sony amps are highly overrated and often fry within a few short weeks. Look around on the web for a JBL 1200.1 amp. They're not very expensive and will push your pair of L7's. |

ThatGuyYouKnow Unregistered guest | Sony amps do "xplode" my old one was a good seat warmer, its just a accident waiting to happen(car on fire) really. and that sony has really shitty sound quality(and bass). trust me, perhaps a HiFonics BX1500D? |
Bronze Member Username: D1slocateCary, NC US Post Number: 43 Registered: Nov-04 | I have 2 12" Cerwin Vega V-Maxes and my friend has 2 12" Alpine Type R's. Pretty similar amps right? Not with different amps! I have a Kicker kx600.1 and he has a Sony 1200 watt xplode. I am so much louder it's not even funny. Seriously. Not. Funny. I'm so happy I didn't buy them from him. |
