Joshex Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 My friend has 2 sa8v2d2 sundowns and they are rated at 2 ohms dvc. He wants to run 1000 rms per sub. What amps should he use and how should he do it? He is trying to find good deals on amps as well. 95 Acura Integra - 5-speedNFG Pioneer FH-X700BT(2) Rockford Fosgate 12" P3AQ1200dRockford Fosgate P1652-S 6.5" components Rockford Fosgate P1572 5x7"Rockford Fosgate R400.4 95 Integra Build Here93 EJ2 Build Here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrilla Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 That's a lot of power to run to those subs. I'd recommend the AQ2200D. It's on sale right now and it's pretty damn cheap, but he won't be getting 1K watts each sub since the final load will be 2ohm. 2 HDC3 18's AQ2200D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watch the bass Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 He have to run the sub´s on 2 Ohm´s or 0.5 Ohm´s. Have a look on the sale from Soundqubed (AQ) for a AQ 3500 http://www.soundqubed.com/Mono-Block_c_29.html for running on 2 Ohm, or for 0.5 Ohm a Lanzar Opti http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-LANZAR-OPTI2000D-2000W-CLASS-D-MONO-CAR-AUDIO-AMPLIFIER-AMP-2000-WATT-/271111376654?pt=Car_Amplifiers&hash=item3f1f7f4f0e.

Eedle Bug Hollingsworth Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 Alright thanks josh To anyone who sees those are my subs he posted about. The deal is that I had one if them running off of a kicker 500.1 amp at 1 ohms running 500 watts rms and one of the terminals melted and also it was not close to as loud as I though it would be, I don't think 2 of them at 1000 watts rms would be either, I went into a sub store and told the owner and he said the terminal melting is no big deal to just attach my speaker wires directly to the voice coil leads and to run them at 1000 watts rms a piece Your thoughts?

AqFi Posted February 3, 2013 Report Share Posted February 3, 2013 I have a soundqubed (AQ) 1200d and I love it, so my vote would be for the AQ 2200d. Just read all of the great reviews about it on soundqubed's website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
