Zv.4 how much is too much power?


Recommended Posts

I currently have 2 zv4 12's tuned to 30hz on a crescendo 3500. Curious as to if a 5500 is too much power for them when wired at 1 ohm. And gain set with dd-1

I mean, if they are holding up fine on the 3500 now, don't get warm, and mechanically stay under control then yeah probably.

A buddy of mine has done three different builds with two on 5k and they all get nasty and are holding up great. I plan to run a 3k at .5 to each one of mine....

I do know what I'm doing. These subs just came out. What I should have asked was if anyone has ran them on a 5k. I have the electrical to run a 5k all day (see sig). Figured I'd ask to see if someone else has done it. With the 3500 at 1 ohm, the subs don't get warm at all, or even stink. I figure as long as tuning and voltage are correct a 5k would work well. True?

there are people running them on 4k each daily and they lap it up. i run my Xs on more power than you have now and they want more. the zv4 spiders are a fair bit stiffer than the Xs with more motor force. 2 zv4s with easily handle a 5500 , make sure its all clean and they will love it .
