StreetMetalBen Posted October 8, 2012 Report Posted October 8, 2012 I have a 12" sub that was custom built, and the guy was trying to tell me the info off memory. he said 500 Rms al day every day forever.... but i really hope that is under powered... But i was wondering how i can figure out the Actual power handling of the sub. It is an Alpine Type-R 15" motor, reconed as a 12 with carbon fiber cone, high roll surround, etc. He also said the are dual .7 ohm coils, but i ohmed them at exactly 1 ohm per coil... So pretending i know NOTHING about the sub, how can i find out all the good info?? Thanks!
SnowDrifter Posted October 8, 2012 Report Posted October 8, 2012 What do you want? T/S parameters or power handling or what? Power handling... If it stinks on clean power, back it off a bit lol. ~~~~~~~~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

If it stinks on clean power, back it off a bit lol. Haha, yes i would like to mainly know its true power handling. I'm running a RF 600.1Bd. Which is about 750RMS at 2 Ohms. and it sounds clean even on full gain. and even after an hour of constant bumping, its only mildly warm.

TheBetterMethod Posted October 9, 2012 Report Posted October 9, 2012 Well if it's mildly warm after full bumping for an hour @ 750 watts...It'll take more. 2005 Subaru Outback Wagon Pioneer 9400BH Fi Q 15, SAZ1500dV3 The first build>>> http://www.stevemead...-outback-build/ 140.9 @ 36hz Sealed on dash!

TheBetterMethod Posted October 9, 2012 Report Posted October 9, 2012 I bet it would easily burp safely on 1500w. Just keep trying bigger amps until you think it's gonna burn. 2005 Subaru Outback Wagon Pioneer 9400BH Fi Q 15, SAZ1500dV3 The first build>>> http://www.stevemead...-outback-build/ 140.9 @ 36hz Sealed on dash!

Any time you have have a power wire next to your frame put some rubber hosing (or cut up an innertube) around it. The wire is bound to wiggle (due to driving or flex) and the casing will eventually wear through. Hammerdown... 1% no links to outside websites, business related FB/YT pages allowed.
