new guy Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 Whatever you do decide to get DON'T go over the rms rating. Over powering them will not make em louder, you'll end up blowing your subs and you're out the money and you have no beats. If you try them build a box to spec and be easy on the power and if you're looking for louder just upgrade later on. I hear you but I was planning on get a certain amp for this build they will be fine on the 1k. *current* 1991 honda crx si 2 skar audio 12s pioneer 6.5s dual 400 watt amp audio technix db 1/0 wiring kit. dual head unit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear you but I was planning on get a certain amp for this build they will be fine on the 1k. Any specific box i need since I'm putting that much on them? id just start with 2 cubes each and then build the box bigger/smaller based on how they do in that box. don't expect to get the box perfect the first time id be expecting to build atleast 4-6 boxes before you get one that performs really well. but just keep at it and you will get it down. *current* 1991 honda crx si 2 skar audio 12s pioneer 6.5s dual 400 watt amp audio technix db 1/0 wiring kit. dual head unit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many watts did you have it on Maybe i was idk, cuz back then i had no idea on how to tune, so i just did it by ear. The amp is suppose to put out 600 rms @ 2ohm. And with my stock electrical on 4 gauge monster wire, but no big 3 i might have actually seen 600 watts. More than likely it was less tho. Anyways im just trying to say if i was clipping, then the alpine took it like a champ and still does today... 13 Kia Forte Build! 07 Hyundai Accent Build ***Super Seller*** N8ball2013 And then he gets to say ok all you guys were right. im sorry for being a dummy poo poo head.
