New member Username: Papasmurf2217Post Number: 3 Registered: Aug-08 | Thanks for the quick responses guys! I really appreciate all the help. One more thing I forgot to mention. I'm going to be putting these subs in a box under my rear seats in my 1998 F-150 extended cab. If anyone knows of a good place to find a fitted box that would be great too. I've checked ebay and supercrewsound, but if anyone has any other suggestions please let me know! |

New member Username: Papasmurf2217Post Number: 4 Registered: Aug-08 | Ok I think I decided on what I'm going to do. Since I'm putting the subs under my rear seat, there won't be much room. So I decided on either 2 P3SD412 or 2 P3SD212...and I was looking at the Audioque 1200D amp and it looks solid...any comments? Since the subs are 400RMS each I was thinking of running them at 2 ohms so that would mean I should get the P3SD212s yes? http://akamaipix.crutchfield.com/ca/learningcenter/car/subwoofer_wiring/2DVC_2-o hm_mono.jpg and Audioque 1200D is a mono subwoofer that will go 870rms at 2ohms. just want to make sure this all sounds right? Thanks! |

Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 8292 Registered: Jul-06 | What subs are those??? And a Audioque 1200d is a great amp. But run it a 1 ohm if you get that. |

New member Username: Papasmurf2217Post Number: 5 Registered: Aug-08 | They're 2 Ohm DVC shallow subs from rockford fosgate http://www.crutchfield.com/App/Product/Item/Main.aspx?search=P3SD212&i=575P3SD21 2 I think the only way I can wire them is for a 2 ohm load though? And I'm looking at putting them in this box http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem%26item%3D230281630062&_trksid=p390 7.m32&_trkparms=tab%3DWatching That should all work, correct? It's my first box setup and I just want to make sure everything will be compatible...like even though the subs are smaller than the mounting depth in the box they will still fit? Thanks |

Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 8294 Registered: Jul-06 | Get the Dual 4 ohm ones then they wire to 1 ohm. |
|
New member Username: Papasmurf2217Post Number: 6 Registered: Aug-08 | oh good call...i don't know why i didn't think of that haha. should be wired like this then, correct? http://www.the12volt.com/12voltimages/2_4ohm_dvc_1ohm.gif |
|
New member Username: Papasmurf2217Post Number: 7 Registered: Aug-08 | and as long as i set the gains correctly on the amp/subs I shouldn't have a problem right? if it says the amp can pump out up to 1200rms at 1 ohm then it should have no problem pumping 800rms at 1 ohm? |

Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 8295 Registered: Jul-06 | Yep thats right |
