Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 2474 Registered: Aug-05 | if you are wondering if you will be underpowering a sub by too little, a general rule of thumb is not to go under 80% of the subs power handling. |

Silver Member Username: JohnnylemoineLaPlace, Louisiana United States Post Number: 534 Registered: Aug-04 | lol its cool bro so am i under powering it by 80%? i ordered the sub today im so excited cant wait for it to get here |
|
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 2509 Registered: Aug-05 | no, i meant don't give it any less than 80% of its power handling. which would be 1280wRMS. so your fine. i think you will be very happy with it.(wish i had one, but i don't like how it takes so much power to get them moving) |

Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 1571 Registered: Jul-05 | i thought the old xxx was rated @ 1600wrms - so wouldn't 1200wrms be a tad under power ? I'd pick a 2000wrms amp so the amp it would have some headroom -lol |

Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 1572 Registered: Jul-05 | Oh - i just reread his 1st post & that he already has a Orion 1200 & he wants to use it for daily driving -lol .....my bad |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 2515 Registered: Aug-05 | 80% of 1600 is 1280. which is okay. DUH Rovin. lol j/k |

Silver Member Username: JohnnylemoineLaPlace, Louisiana United States Post Number: 539 Registered: Aug-04 | i hope i like it too. im pretty sure i will unless the sub blows up in my face when i turn it on or it sounds like sh!t but i seriously doubt that. i got a 2.25 cuft box tuned to 35 hz will it sound good in this box? at least for a lil while im building a copy of my old box which is tuned to 28 hz and thats wut im goin to have the triple X in. but for now will the 35 hz box sound good? |

Silver Member Username: FordpwrLos angeles, CA Usa Post Number: 392 Registered: Dec-04 | If it helps any, I have that same amp to an 18 x.x.x. and beleive me, it's more than enough for a daily driver. I 've also heard from other people that this amp is underated. What I can tell you though , is that its a killer amp for either my 15 or 18's. Just build a perfect enclosure and it will sound sweet. |

Silver Member Username: JohnnylemoineLaPlace, Louisiana United States Post Number: 540 Registered: Aug-04 | yeah thats wut i was goin for. i just built a box for my SX 12 tuned to 35 hz and its sweet http://photos.groups.yahoo.com/group/audible_insanity_spl/lst?.dir=/Installs/Joh nny%27s+Sound&.src=gr&.order=&.view=t&.done=http%3a//briefcase.yahoo.com/ thats some pics of my box and sub but now i got to build another box for the triple X |
