New member Username: Joshpenny83Post Number: 1 Registered: Jun-08 | i recently bought a kicker dcvr124 comp vr dual 12's that come in the kicker box and everything. both subs are dual voice coiled and the max watts is 1600 with a rms of 800 watts and 4 ohm's. ive have asked around on the net and pretty much gotten a different answer everytime. i think im fianlly starting to understand the ohm's stuff. some people said i could wire it up so it showed a amp a 2 ohm load and others said that wouldnt be possible and said go with a 1 ohm load and then others said that wouldnt be safe. can anyone help me out here with a right answer so i dont mess up my brand new subs |

Here are the specks: 800 Watts Peak Power 400 Watts RMS power Non-Press Paper Cone Specially Treated Foam Edge Suspension 2.0" High Temperature Dual Voice Coil 80 Oz Magnet Weight Dual 4 Ohms Impendence Fs (Hz): 30 -1KHz Qms : 4.0 Qes : 0.75 Qts : 0.65 SPL(dB) : 86 Vas (cuft): 4.7 Lug Lock Terminals 5.25" Mouthing Depth Hole 2 Ohm or 8 Ohm Operation Silver Plated Terminal Chrome Finished Basket With Vent For High Performance Now, what amplifer wattage will I need to power these subwoofers? I have a Sony XPlod 600w amp, but my friends say my subs will fry it. Also I bought a new Kenwood deck that pushes 50x4 watts into my 4 speakers. What speakers (watts) should I buy for superior quaility? Any suggestions? E-mail me at: fingersmalone22@hotmail.com. Really appreciate. New Car Guy. |
