HelpTheSubless Unregistered guest | I've got a Monoblock KX400.1 400@2ohms, 200@4ohms. Would it hurt a DVC 2ohm Type-R that has a 300Watts RMS being fed by 200Watts @ 4ohms. Im gonna go with a ported @ 28Hz. |

HelpTheSubless Unregistered guest | Thanks for replying man. Considering that the sub's gonna be underpowered, do i need to modify the size of the enclosure or anything? I dont know if i should follow the suggested size from Alpine though... I'm aiming for that low soft bass. |
