KenC210 Posted October 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2011 so the amp i most likely will consider is http://outlet.crutchfield.com/p_675FRP4001/Rockford-Fosgate-Punch-P400-1.html?ssi=0&tp=13643&nvpair=AG_Number_of_Channels%7cFFMono_Subwoofer&tab=detailed_info its factory refurbished and i have a 75 discount card. but however what i plan on running are 2 selenium tweeters rated 100wrms and 2 selenium 8" rated 150wrms. so if there are any options on amps you guys would like to refer im open to all options.

CleanSierra Posted October 1, 2011 Report Share Posted October 1, 2011 (edited) I've read all of your posts, and youre really overthinking a lot of this. What are the impedances of the tweeters you're choosing, and the mid drivers(8")? That will determine what power you are getting from the amp. And just a little FYI, that amp CAN actually put out more than 400WRMS. Fosgate amps do more than rated. *Edit-You want to run your soundstage in STEREO because mono won't have any left to right differences. It won't give you the true sound in the way it was intended to be heard. Edited October 1, 2011 by CleanSierra Quote Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.

If im reading it right, you will have 2 speakers per channel. all speakers are 8 ohms and running the two speakers in parallel cuts the ohm load in half, 4 ohms. look in to Soundigitals new 250.2. it does 250 watts RMS at 4 ohms. just my two cents.

It would roofie them, knock them out with chloroform, then make sweet, gentle, anal love to them all night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IH8PunkRok Posted October 1, 2011 Report Share Posted October 1, 2011 want my advice? ditch the "bass blockers" and get a real passive x-over. you see those "bass blockers" are a simple 6db per octave passive crossover that 1. can handle very little power (as they were designed for HU power) and 2. do very little in the way of protecting your tweeters say your tweet can play down to 3k hz at a 24db per octave id feel safe putting my high pass right at 3k for a 6db per octave id want it set more at 6k and even then it may be a little iffy i like 18 db and up x-overs as for your other questions good luck Quote -Matt2005 Dodge Magnum RTJVC KD-AVX1 2 PPI S580.2 Obsidian Audio ST1 Horn Tweeters PRV 8MB450s Audio Legion 3500.1D 2 RE MT 18s 360 ah LiFePO4 BatterySHCA 2/0 155.2 @ 29 hzKicker CVR 15's buildDD 3512e buildMini T-Line Build(6) 8s BuildNightshade 15s Wall BuildMagnum AB XFL 12s BuildNewest Magnum Build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you plan on getting, or already have subs, sub amp that would be your way to go it has front and rear, and sub control on it. It all comes down to your needs and what you want bro.
