TIG Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 I have made a few topics asking questions on here (like most do) because I have been out of the scene for so long. Anyway, I have 2 kicker 15" cvr's now and was wanting to do away with them and get 2 12's in a ported box. Well I was advised to keep the 15's and build a nice sealed box for them(because I donted have room for a port box). I have a ppi pc1400 which if I remember right is 400x1 at 4ohm 800x1 at 2ohm and not sure what it does at 1ohm because its not rated for 1ohm although I have been running it at 1ohm for 2 years with no problems. My question is can I get away with running a bigger amp on my subs without blowing them? My subs are rated 1000peak and 500rms. I was thinking about an Autotek 2000d. I only want to spend around 300.00 tops on a amp. So let me know what you guys think. Quote Since were all having a moment of truth. I hate country too.. I'd only listen to it if I got some hotass bitch in my car and shes gonna suck my dick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire2k6 Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 assuming the Autotek puts out somewhere close to 2k id say your looking for trouble with only 2 subs. Quote Live life to the full... Then TURN THAT BITCH UP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIG Posted March 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 Do you think the 1500.1 would be alright? Im not sure how much more the subs will handle over what they are rated. Im just not sure if the amp I have is pushing them to their full potential. Quote Since were all having a moment of truth. I hate country too..

TIG Posted March 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Whats the price on the AQ and where can I find it? I have a autotek 1000.2 on 2 memphis 10's in my truck turned all the way up and it does not impress me at all so I don't really want to go that rout, just not sure about these new amps. I dont know what is good and what isnt. Quote Since were all having a moment of truth. I hate country too.. I'd only listen to it if I got some hotass bitch in my car and shes gonna suck my dick.
