Guest Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 1000 is a good number. just a heads up though, the hdc's can take 2000 no problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96saturnsl Posted February 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 ik lol. im only getting the copper coil tho. my birth sheet with the t1000.1bd said 1536w rms at 1 ohm. so thats decent till i can save for a bigger amp. any other subs that would be just as good or better for the price?

xXxOuTLaWxXx Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 I think it's a great choice for the price. Whether your running 1K to it or 3K it's still a great choice IMO Quote "i'd rather die like a man than live like a coward" quoted from Tupac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether your running 1K to it or 3K it's still a great choice IMO well i guess that solves that lol. but what size enclosure should i make for it? and im guessing they play low so ill tune it low.

Loudcivic Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 just remember even though it says said amount of power you will not see that. you will have voltage drop at full tilt with that amp i would suggest getting a nice battery for under the hood and one in the back wouldnt hurt and will help you in the future for bigger amps. also the big 3 will help to Quote 2015 silverado crew cab nothing atm but soon...

AQ underrates their subs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
