kyle318 Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 I'm about to have 2 DD1508's installed beneath my extended cab seats in a forward firing fashion... I don't have any experience with DD besides the fact that my friend had 2 1508's in his truck, I briefly listened to once and was like wow those sound like 12's! So that was where I came from wanting this setup. I used to have Kickers, rockfords, those kinds of brands I think they are going to use the CM1000 amp on 2 DD1508's So this is my question:Would it be noticeably louder if I had them use a 1200watt amp or even a 1500watt (or more)?Financially its not a problem but if I have to spend a whole lot of money to only have a marginal gain I just wouldn't care for that Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hazestorm23 Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 1200 watts to 1500 watts is very minimal you wouldn't hear the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyle318 Posted December 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 1200 watts to 1500 watts is very minimal you wouldn't hear the difference. That is what I have been thinking... I have tried to do some research but I haven't had much success... Do you think from 1000 to 1500 - or 1700 -would be noticeably different? If I go with 1500 or 1700 I'll probably need a small battery b/c I have a t600-4 door speaker amp I've never had a system and dropped in a larger amp Once I buy a system thats usually all I do until I get rid of everything and get a new one So I don't know what kind of difference a larger amp will actually make on these two drivers... Especially since I have never had anything below 12's and have never dealt with DD before But from all my research I'm freaking pumped! Any other thoughts?

bcbrassard Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 300+ watts will be a difference, maybe not huge but a difference. Extra battery would help alot to for sub amp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gattiboy13 Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 I went from a 1200 to 1500 rms amp and yes a huge difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n8ball2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 I think on 1508s youre gain over 1200 watts is negligible. While they are good woofers and I own a pair. They are limited by their suspension and coil. 1200 watts.is all id run to them anways because of those factors THERE IS NO BUILD LOG! 1998 Chevy Silverado ext cab Alpine CDA-9887 4 Team Fi 15s 2 Ampere Audio TFE 8.0 2 Ampere Audio 150.4 3 Digital Designs CS6.5 component sets Dual Mechman 370XP Elite alternators inbound! 8 XS Power d3400 6 XS power d680 Second Skin Stinger Tsunami Wiring Sky High A Real Voltmeter not a piece of shit stinger.
