Jbombz69 Posted July 2, 2011 Report Posted July 2, 2011 Hey guys, just bought two lms ultra 18's and came to hear some ideas on an amp that would make these beast happy (cheesy). Along with the amp, what XS battery would be good (dosnt have to be XS). Input would be great! Thanks. Quote

Thanks. how many watts are you wanting to give each sub? im kind of bias towards sundown equipment just from all of the positive reviews, decent prices and great customer service. but really man, the amp is going to just depend on what you want in your set up and what your budget is.

Thanks man! I was thinking around 3000 each since they can handle between 2 and 8 thousand. Budget isnt great, probably 600 at most for a amp. ill check those out for sure though. Quote

Budget isnt great, probably 600 at most for a amp. ill check those out for sure though. for $600 i dont see you getting any good 6,000wrms. i would say start by getting a good 3000wrms amp and saving for another one. the crescendo bc3500 does 3875wrms @ 1ohm , and you can have it shipped to your door for 599.99. and really id say that is one of the best deals on an amp out right now. dude producing that kind of power isnt cheap at all, your really going to have to do much much more than 1 xs battery, your going to need a few and a big alternator man and a lot of 1/0awg! and that isnt cheap at all. may i ask what ohms your voice coils are???? and btw.... id just use one of those subs on that amp for now until you save up for the other amp haha Quote so far...

You say they can handle between 2k and 8k. They are rated at 2kwrms and 8kw peak, that's where you got those numbers from, correct? You don't seem to be experienced enough to run a high powered system if you don't know to totally disregard peak rating. And with a $600 budget, the Crecendo BC3500 is your best bet, do you have the electrical to support that amplifier? How big do you plan to make the enclosure? Quote Bassless once again.

No, i know my fair share about audio, the whole reason for this was just to get a couple different suggestions for an amp, budget or no budget. I own a ford van so im not really pressed for space for a box. Also i already have an extra dc alternator and 2 Xs batteries from my old setup in their now. But i still enjoy the feedback from you guys, so keep it coming. Quote

Supercharged DCs Posted July 3, 2011 Report Posted July 3, 2011 A BC3500 each would be killer! Quote Bassless once again. Can't seem to keep a system for more than a few weeks Saving for a '06 Nissan 350z, look for build around June 2012.
Jbombz69 Posted July 3, 2011 Author Report Posted July 3, 2011 A BC3500 each would be killer! Totally leaning towards those!!! Now, i have a dc alternator and 2 xs batteries, whats your thoughts on that. you think thats enough power to support Quote
Supercharged DCs Posted July 3, 2011 Report Posted July 3, 2011 What size DC alt? What size XS Batteries? Quote Bassless once again. Can't seem to keep a system for more than a few weeks Saving for a '06 Nissan 350z, look for build around June 2012.
