For 2 Alpine type-r's 12" 4ohm would one kicker 1200.1 or 2 kicker 750.1 power the system more efficiently

750.1 is too weak, 1200.1 should be fine with just a little head room if you do it right

yeah but those 750.1's will easily put out at least 900wrms. i wouldn't chance it and put that much to an r.

I have seen a Collasus(sp) on a single 15 R. If the amps are strapable then I would go with the two 750's more current flow and a bit more power. If the sub complains kill it, throw it where it belongs....JK..Polo. :-O

yes I see no problem with the Rs takin that kinda power...


2 300d >> 1 600d
2 600d >> 1 1200d
2 1200d >> 1 2500d
2 2500d >> 1 5000d
2 5000d >> 1 10000d


I hope u get the picture...
like Polo said, greater current draw = more power!

well. it depends on your situation.
for type R's i wouldn't go over 600-800wRMS. it jsut isn't necessary. also. unless you have a HO alt. Current is not your best friend.:-(

1200.1 FTW

is it easier to wire up, not so much space taken up. will look cleaner. 1 amp will do ya just fine, and have plenty of power for those R's.:-)

1200.1

i guess my opinion doesent matter because im not as important as muddy or berny but i think that 1200.1 will be best. they should bump nicely with that. but i mean i cant see the two 750.1 hurting them, im pretty sure they would take it ive seen others with a bit more power then that on them and they sounded fine.
