WillPwn4Food Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 Probably. I've got myself a Fosgate R2D2 12" on a bash 300s (plate amp most klipsch subs use). It sounds astounding and gets LOW. Tuned to 29.... I have it firing forward but I'm going to make a new down-firing enclosure this spring. Put a sick Fosgate logo on the front.

EricM9104 Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 Run a plate amp. Much easier to setup, and better chance of a solid power source. 2015 Honda Civic LX 4dr | 24k miles Stock H/U and mids/highs Power Acoustik GW3-12" D2 Sub HiFonics BXX1200.1D @ 1ohm Random 2.5^3' dual ported box NVX LOC Stinger wiring throughout 1977 Chevy SWB Cammed 350 Dual exhaust Cheap Wish stereo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PapaGeno21 Posted December 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 Already ordered everything this weekend. Found a kick ass computer power supply that puts out 56 amps on the 12V Rail, which will be fine pushing the 400 watt mono amp I ordered. Went with the MB quart FX 400.1, which is 2 ohms stable. That was only 62 bucks and the power supply was 40, so for 102 I have a 400 watt setup. The amount of cash I would have needed to spend for a plate amp setup to push the same power is just silly. I should have this all rigged up this week, I will post pics and vids when it is done. | Pioneer | DC Audio | Crescendo | XS Power | SHCA & Knu | CDT | DC Power | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillPwn4Food Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 My 300w plate amp was $157. Well worth it. Just looked... 500wrms @ 4 ohm amplifier for $215 on eBay brand new. *shrug* oh well. Can't wait for pics.

PapaGeno21 Posted December 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 The other issue is that the sub I have is a D4. SO I cant run it at 4 ohms which is what all the plate amps runs at. I assume 8 ohms would cut the power to half, in which case I would need a massive plate amp. Would be cheaper to recone the thing than to pay the difference on a plate amp. | Pioneer | DC Audio | Crescendo | XS Power | SHCA & Knu | CDT | DC Power | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillPwn4Food Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 Crap. Forgot it was a d4. I guess your route is the best other than getting a rack mount amp.

PapaGeno21 Posted December 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 For just a budget setup I think this will work well. I got a good deal on an SA8 and always wanted to play with one. When I broke down the cost of running like 6 of them in my car, or putting a few in my girls it was just better for me to use one for my computer LOL. I can see 8's being a black hole of money for the car. | Pioneer | DC Audio | Crescendo | XS Power | SHCA & Knu | CDT | DC Power | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillPwn4Food Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 Aha yeah. I wanted to run 4 in my car.... For the price I bought 2 of my buddy's Fi N2 15's for 300 each and went that route.
