Silver Member Username: DrivingrecklessNear tampa, Florida United state... Post Number: 471 Registered: Apr-06 | U COULD USE AN AMP THT IS 2 OHM STABLE OR 1 0HM STABLE THEY WILL BOTH TAKE 3 OHM LOAD |
|
Silver Member Username: LexuscoopPheonix, Arizona USA Post Number: 235 Registered: May-06 | just hook it up and get the + and the - together thats all the help i can give you because its a SVC and 3 ohm thats all you can do basically |

Silver Member Username: DrivingrecklessNear tampa, Florida United state... Post Number: 472 Registered: Apr-06 | U COULD ALSO A BUY A PG XENON AMP THEY TAKE AN OHM LOAD OF 1-4 OHMS SO IT WOULD WORK FINE |
|
Bronze Member Username: KpowersPost Number: 13 Registered: May-06 | cool thnx i got it - it just is 3 ohms - hook it up.. if the sub runs optimally at 500W and the warranty voids is running it over 1000W, and the amp specs are as follows: Kenwood KAC-9152D 1,800 Watts max power 500 Watts x 1 max (4 ohms) RMS 900 Watts x 1 (2 ohms) RMS 900 Watts x 1 (1 ohms) RMS will it run at somwhere between 500 and 900 watts. will i have to get a new alternator to put all this in my cadillac? |

Silver Member Username: LexuscoopPheonix, Arizona USA Post Number: 236 Registered: May-06 | so it should be gettin arround 700 RMS or so... no your alt should be fine |
|
Bronze Member Username: KpowersPost Number: 15 Registered: May-06 | and even though 3 ohms isnt listed in the specs, it should work? |

Silver Member Username: LexuscoopPheonix, Arizona USA Post Number: 238 Registered: May-06 | yea because it does 2 and 4 it just goes right in the middle you shouldn't run .5 ohms on that it might fry but going inbetween ohms like thats ok |

Bronze Member Username: KpowersPost Number: 17 Registered: May-06 | someone in the amplifier section on this site is telling me this amp wont power a jl 10W7 like i want it to. he is suggesting better amps. think the kenwood amp is ok or is he right? |
|
Silver Member Username: LexuscoopPheonix, Arizona USA Post Number: 239 Registered: May-06 | this amp is ok... BUT the jl 1000/1 is BEST for the sub, it pushes it to its FULL potential. 700 RMS is good, and you should be satisfied with it. unless you are expecting to like go to compotitions you'll be fine. go to www.realmofexucrsion.com and look up the JL w7's most are powered by a 1000/1 JL amp.. |
