TeamHT Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 This is one of those cases where if you have to ask, then maybe you shouldn't. I have run twice, triple, even 4x the rated power. And yes, I have blown more equipment than a hooker with $20. That being said, I did it knowing I was risking it, and learned everything I know now first hand. If you have to ask, just don't. Or just do it and share your results. Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lbox88 Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 Hey, at least be a pal and do us all a favor: record the first 10 minutes of throwing 1700 at it. I love to see woofers smoke. UBL | Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fmedina Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 I wouldn't give the Obsidian 1700 watts. Im giving my oa15 about 1200 and it seems to take it well but I used a dd1 to set my gains and i built the box for that power and I watch my voltage. But it does get smelly after playing for a long period of time on certain songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stroupe79 Posted January 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 Ok...not saying I was going to put 1700 on it regardless...this why I asked...looks like 1200 is even a reach...1000w maybe the max to consider.. Fmedina...how are they holding up? You think they will take a beating for awhile?...not 1700w beating but like 850-1000w daily http://www.stevemead...cherokee-build/ 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee Alpine CDE-hd148bt Alpine PKG-RSE2 PRV Audio (4) 6MB200 front/rear doors PRV Audio (4) TW350Ti dash/rear doors Kicker KX350.4 Obsidian Audio (1) 18 D4 v2 revamp (2) Stereo Integrity HT 18d2DC Audio 1.2k5.25ft^3 tuned @34hz revamp Infinite Baffle Cpillar AudioTechnix 60mil deadenerKnuKonceptz & SkyHigh wire (complete setup) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fmedina Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 i have one 15 but its holing pretty good. just careful playing at full tilt for long cuz they will get smelly and if not cautious they will eventually blow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
