Silver Member Username: TheweaselPost Number: 110 Registered: Mar-06 | sh!t this sh!t's confusing. if i run a 2 ohm load from the amp then that means each sub gets 1 ohm right? |
|
Silver Member Username: Graphix1Santa Rosa Heights, Arima Trinidad & T... Post Number: 860 Registered: Oct-05 | damn rov...u know ur shiz offhand... rob, two 4ohm coils of one sub in parallel will equal to 2ohms then 2 2ohm subs in parallel will equal to 1ohm on the amp... |
|
Silver Member Username: TheweaselPost Number: 111 Registered: Mar-06 | rovin you're the type r man, how much can these subs take? and where the hell can i find a 1200d or a kicker 1200 for 350 shipped? i can't find them for any cheaper then about 450. |

Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 7262 Registered: Jul-05 | safely 1200wrms -IMO there r many ppl on this froum u have them on orion 1200d/kicker kx1200 . Ya they may be over 350 shipped. U can go RE 1200 or ed9 - both does 1200 easily. if u got this amp u can buy either 2 or 4ohms model & push it comfortably since it does 1200wrms + & functions between a 1-4ohms loads http://cgi.ebay.com/PHOENIX-GOLD-X1200-1-XENON-1200w-MONO-CAR-AMP-AMPLIFIER_W0QQ itemZ9709628648QQcategoryZ18797QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem |

Silver Member Username: TheweaselPost Number: 112 Registered: Mar-06 | 1200w for both subs right? and if i got a new hifonics amp thats rated at 1300 or 1600w rms do you think that could put out enought power? |
|
Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 7264 Registered: Jul-05 | ya ^ - each would get 600wrms there was a hifonics bench yested by some1 online & it actually did about 70% rated so if its a budget build then ya but u have 2 get a higher than needed model like maybe a 1905 new models now came out & no1 on this forum has any as yet so we cant say 0 about it ...... |
