scooter99 Posted July 25, 2014 Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 I'm just wondering if it's possible to do 4 ported M38's on a single 5.0K at 1 ohm. I seem to remember Rob (Thorshammer) having a pair of M38's, although I'm sure they weren't just M38's if you know what I mean, but on a 5.0k or maybe it was a 3.5k. I know at 2 ohms I'd be looking at around 2300 watts, but I doubt I'll get that with box rise etc, and that's just short at RMS with 575 Watts provided I got all 2300 watts out of it. At 1 ohm is just at above recommended max per sub at 1250. I could gain it down obviously. Just curious if anyone has done this or what you guys think on that?

will77530 Posted July 25, 2014 Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 rusty uses a 3.5k in his truck on 4 of them it is possible but a tad risky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRTC360 Posted July 25, 2014 Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 Mehhh, i'd run the 5k. No doubt in my mind that they'd handle it if you don't go crazy with the gain.

hispls Posted August 14, 2014 Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 A good rule of thumb is that if you have to ask, you have no business running more than manufacturer's power rating to a woofer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
