CaptainWhoosh Posted August 28, 2013 Report Posted August 28, 2013 Hey all. My name is Jason and I am a currently deployed soldier originally from Modesto, CA. While out here, I've been piecing together a system for my car and have chosen this amp:http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_44471_MB-Quart-ONX1.2000D.html I will be powering this amp with a mechman 270 and a decent battery(havent picked one yet) to push my 2 RE audio SX 12d2's. Does anyone have any experience with this amp and know if it will be up to the task? Thanks! We don't do it for the glory.
wizart383 Posted August 28, 2013 Report Posted August 28, 2013 Are you planing to run the subs @ .5 or 2ohms?

Rockford96 Posted August 28, 2013 Report Posted August 28, 2013 Id say if your gonna run at 2 ohms look into some of rockfords bdcp amps My setup, Digital Designs M80 3 Re audio 10's ported tuned to 36 hz Kenwood x-696 SHCA 0 gauge Polk audio coax running off hu
john253a Posted August 28, 2013 Report Posted August 28, 2013 That amp does 1300@2 So 650 a piece And thoes subs are rated at 1000 So you'll have a good safety factor there and I personal wouldn't run thoes daily at 1k The onyx range isn't a bad range and at that price there its pretty dam good Just make sure you keep the elec up to it As its a hungry amp But at 2ohm final you should right
2loud4uboyz Posted August 28, 2013 Report Posted August 28, 2013 ^^ was well said. If you bought it already use it sir. And thank you for what you do..
CaptainWhoosh Posted August 29, 2013 Author Report Posted August 29, 2013 Okay great, thank you guys for the replies and of course thank you for the soldier support we appreciate it. I'm able to wire the subs at 1 ohm, right? We don't do it for the glory.
wizart383 Posted August 29, 2013 Report Posted August 29, 2013 You won't be able to wire both subs to 1 ohm. .5 and 2 ohms are your two options
kjstoken360 Posted August 29, 2013 Report Posted August 29, 2013 You should get a larger amp otherwise you will probably regret it in the end. If its rated at 1300 at 2 ohms and both your subs are 1k then you need at least a 2k amp at 2 ohms. I also read one of the reviews on that amp and someone said that it doesn't do the full 2000 w at 1 ohms so it probably wouldn't do the full 1300 w. 2005 chevy tahoe heated seats dvd player sunroof 2 kicker 15 in solobarics 1 zx1500.1 amplifier sirius xm radio with bose system
OrionStang Posted August 29, 2013 Report Posted August 29, 2013 If you're deployed, you're making pretty good money right now. I wouldn't buy anything yet, rather just keep putting money into an audio fund until your tour is over. You can do much better than that Onyx amp. I'd also consider selling those subs and upgrading.
