Level 4's daily

[WillPwn4Food]

So how many watts is everyone running to their Level 4's daily? I hear some say they won't handle that much, and some say they will... Thinking about walling 2 level 4 18's on the DC 3.5k. Too much power for them? I'd really rather not have to upgrade to the XLs, but any sort of input is welcome.

id think that would be a little too much power. just turn the gain down a bit and you should be fine.

also, you better do a build log i wanna see this.

I have mine on 5k daily but mine have lvl 5 soft pack and a custom spider pack. You can check out my build log in my signature. You should PM on of the DC reps on here to ask them. Like corona_jeff or CJ, dwright those guys could answers any questions you have there are a bunch of reps on here that could help you out. You should be fine on 3.5 though.

You see, that's what I kind of thought. 1750 to each is 750 over rms recommendation... But DC has always been known to underrate their subwoofers. They're pretty godly. I kind of figured with 5 soft parts it'd be able to handle it no problem. I'll have to check with CJ or someone before I order. And I'll know if my build goes through within a week or so. All depends on my financial situation, of course. Took all of this week off due to a fever If I do, you can sure as hell expect a build log.

youll be fine wit the 3500 on 2 lvl4s thats actually imo the perfect power for lvl4s

meh. your going to want to back the gain down, or make the box a little smaller than recommended. I used 3 different set ups with level 4s and they didnt like more that 1500rms in spec box. Thermally they can handle more like 2k, but mechanically is what you want to watch when throwing double rms at them. But what your asking, a 3500 on 2 4s would be fine, just let them loosen up then adjust accordingly. I ran 1500 to one of my level 4s for about 6 months and could never get it hot, but if i wanted to bottom it out, i could.

i wouldnt worry bout em, ive ran my share of DCs;) including lvl4s infact i had 2 lvl4 12s and 15s on almost 4k for bout 6months. then i went to xl 15s ona 5k then a single lvl5 18 on a 5k at .5 wit no issues what so ever from any dcs iv ownd and every single dc iv owned iv ran any where from 1000-2000 over the rms ratings. my xl 15s were in 4cubes each wit over 2500clamped watts goin to em.

op like i said youll be fine wit 2 lvl4 18s on a 3500. me personally id drop the bish to .5 and let em eat youll be happy wit em.

[ChevyBoy95]

yea, but idk how much experience the OP has with them, or using double the rms.

I have all four of mine on 2 audio pipe 3ks right now. I was running just two of them on one 3k for about two years in my blowthrough. they can take the power if you do it right

From what I seen, the regular 4's do good with about 1100-1200 watts RMS to them... anything more they will heat up... (But it is a fun ass ride getting there!) But for the price of the subs, they are well worth it for what they do!!! If you have more power, you will tend to try to get it out of them....
