Silver Member Username: NissankickerGrambling, LA USA Post Number: 112 Registered: Mar-06 | I need 4 good, preferrably GREAT, 12" subs for my car. They're goin' in a Sealed Box, stuffed w/ Polophyl, w/ about 1.3-1.5cuft. in each chamber. Soo, Please give me some suggestions. PS - They need to be either Dual 2 or Single 4. ( I need a 1 ohm load ). My currently considerations are: Cerwin Vegas ( The chrome lookin' ones ) Treo TSXs Kicker CVRs ( Kinda iffy on these ) JL Audio W3s That's about it... So let me know! Thanks! DJ |

Silver Member Username: BasssquaredKansas Post Number: 950 Registered: Nov-06 | hopefully you have atleast 2000 watts for 4 12s and if you have 2000 watts then hopefully you got a HO alt and maybe a battery or two in two in the back and big 3 |

Silver Member Username: NissankickerGrambling, LA USA Post Number: 116 Registered: Mar-06 | I have a Diesel Audio Titanium N2 3000.1 ( 1-ohm stable ). It's RMS is 2800-3000 @13.8. * Supposeably * I'm not denyin' it though... I have a Yellow Top in to back, and an upgrade Alternator ( 130 ) - '95 Honda Accord can only go up so much ( Original is 95, I believe ). Oh yeah, and a 3 Farad Cap. Hopefully that'll do it. It worked with 3 12"s, minus the battery on a Kicker KX1200.1. I was told that Type Rs get hella loud sealed. Especially in quantities higher than 2. But I never tried a Type R. What's the price range on them, as far as gettin' 4 of them? |

Gold Member Username: 04redmach1Columbus, GA USA Post Number: 1028 Registered: Mar-06 | That Diesel Audio will probably give you a good 2000 rms at 14.4 volts. Are you wanting just pain loud or sound good too? Shoot me an email I will see what I can do for you. Kevin lowhz01@yahoo.com |

Silver Member Username: NissankickerGrambling, LA USA Post Number: 118 Registered: Mar-06 | Kevin actally it's givin' me WAY more than 2000rms. I got my amp tested, Music Mart Inc. showed that it was more around 3100+ rms with my current setup. But Kevin, i'll contact you... I only crank it up for LOUDNESS. ( Subs that is ) my highs and mids are SQ great. |

Bronze Member Username: TejcurrentPost Number: 42 Registered: Apr-07 | Why not some Fi SSDs? Everyone says they do great sealed and sound very good. They'd match your rms about as close as you're going to get too. |
|
Silver Member Username: NissankickerGrambling, LA USA Post Number: 119 Registered: Mar-06 | How much of Fi SSDs per sub? |

Gold Member Username: Th3pwn3rPost Number:... Post Number: 3588 Registered: Jul-06 | "I got my amp tested, Music Mart Inc. showed that it was more around 3100+ rms with my current setup." How was that test performed?What kind of power supply did they use? |

Silver Member Username: TheweaselSteamboat springs, Colorado U.S. of A Post Number: 870 Registered: Mar-06 | 194 shipped with copper coil option each. great choice though especially if you're going sealed. |

Gold Member Username: SouthernrebelMonroe, Louisiana DD 9515d~~]... Post Number: 5071 Registered: Mar-04 | Hey DJ, How did Music Mart test the amp? Last time I was in there, they didnt even have a termlab. Did they use a dummy load and a scope, or did they just come out to your car w/ a multimeter? Just wondering. |

Silver Member Username: NissankickerGrambling, LA USA Post Number: 122 Registered: Mar-06 | James and Pat came out there with a multimeter and played around w/ my system and went back into the store, did some crap over the computer.... And came up w/ the total. |
|
Gold Member Username: OglejustPost Number: 2277 Registered: Aug-06 | ^^^ prolly not accurate... ur suppose to use resistors for the load not the subs. |
|
Silver Member Username: NissankickerGrambling, LA USA Post Number: 124 Registered: Mar-06 | Hmmm... I know for a fact it's runnin' more than 1600 watts |
|
Bronze Member Username: TejcurrentPost Number: 52 Registered: Apr-07 | Where can you get resistors that will handle 3100wrms? A multimeter alone will not tell you much, certainly not the rms. That won't tell you clipping either. How do you 'know for a fact'? I'd call them up and ask for rms ratings. |
|
Silver Member Username: NissankickerGrambling, LA USA Post Number: 126 Registered: Mar-06 | The amp wasn't/isn't clippin' because my gain is yet to be touched. I doubt an amp can clip on Bass Boost alone, with volume not exceeding 26, Bass on CD Play 0 and below... You won't find any, Dre, owner of SynQuest ( Another audio store where I stay ), knows to much *beep* for his own good... Explained to me that that amp is doin' 3000rms @ 1ohm. But, ok... Everyone is entitled to his/her and their on opinion... That's why you post question on these forums. For everyone answers... Don't knock anyone's stuff... Especially if you have heard it, have seen the setup or experimented w/ the EXACT product. Which no one in the forum, that's replied, has. |
