ch0sen Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 do you want to give the woofers 1500 watts rms each, or more around 1000 watts rms to be safe, i wouldn't think they can handle 1500 daily Quote My current 95 Jetta Build w/ pioneer h/u 2 RD Sonance 10's with flatwind coils 2 Audiopipe apsm 1500.1s 1 Hifonics Brutus Elite 60x4 1 XS d925 1 Stinger spv35 1 1000 amp lead acid 50 ft of 0/1 ofc from Audiotechnix all powerbass components, and coaxils, 4 sets buildlog = http://www.stevemead...2-rd-10s-build/ My build for my wife. http://www.stevemead...01-f-150-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raptorman Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 Do 1000 RMS, I ran 1200 to mine when I wired to 1 ohm, blew that coil in an hour.

SnowDrifter Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 If you can power it, shoot for 5-6k. They take 1200 watts clean power daily Quote ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raptorman Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 (edited) I just looked around and couldn't really find a significant upgrade from your amp for around 500. Best thing I found was the Crescendo 3500D and that was 680$ :/ Edit: You can find one for under 500 if you looked in the FS section. I'm sure someone has one up.
