Okay i got two deals here for my two 12'' 1206T audio bahn subs

1. Hifonics BX2200D for $299 Brand new.
2. Orion 2500D REFRUB $355 (ikesound.com)

Whichc should i get? I dont want to get a refurb cause im scared it might have a blown channel or messed up some how.. so what should i get. Which is best suitable to push my subs? Is there other options . The subs are 2 ohm each

The Orion is better than both of those 2. Deirected makes Orion, DEI, and Viper, All are great, Also a Kicker 2500.1 will work, but what are ur vc configs

2 ohm Each sub... so a total 1 ohm load each sub runs 1500 RMS

^^nope, it would be a 2 ohm load or a 8 ohm load, I think the Viper 2500.1 and the Kicker 2500.1 do 2500 rms @ 2 ohms

If theres two subs are 2 OHM each... isnt it 1 OHM load?
because two subs at 4 OHM each is a 2 OHM load...

2 2ohm subs wired in parallel make a 2 ohm load and wired in series makes a 8 ohm load

2 4 ohm subs wired in parallel make a 1 ohm load and wired in series makes a 4 ohm load

Nice guide

your looking at DUAL 4ohm and DUAL 2 ohm

Dual 4ohm = 2 ohm.
so each sub is 2 ohm
Totalling 1 OHM total load.. thats what im getting on the website.. am i incorrect

The audiobahns are Dual 4 Ohm each (2ohm each)

ok i see what ur sayin, the website is correct, if u wired 1 of ur subs to an amp it would be a 2 ohm load, but since u have 2 dvc 4ohm subs it will be a 1 ohm load.kk now i understand

a amp that does 2500 rms @ 1 ohm is what ur looking for, also i doubt the audiobahns can take there rated power so the 2500 watt amps should work great

if you use that orion, you need to supply it with enough power. Alt, battery etc.....
