amp power question?

Recommended Posts

I'm not sure if this should go in the Amp or sub thread but here we go anyway, I'm getting the ct 1400.1 i seen SM test this amp and it does some strong #s like 2600w rms or something like that. my question is could this Amp push two dc level 4 15s? i don't need them to be pushed to there limits. but i don't want to horribly underpower them either. if this amp can do it please let me know. if not I'll get one dc lv 4 now at d2ohm then later when my money is up another ct 1400.1 & another dv lv 4 15. but If i Can save money and just get 2 dc lv 4 dual 4ohm off the one Amp that would be great! not made of money ya know. and i know how much extra i would have to do to run 2of these amps! thanks in advance!

If it was me id just go with the two level 4s and one ct 1400.1 for the time being, u wouldn't hurt the subs by only giving them say 700 watts rms they just wouldn't be living up to there potential...... but if you could look at a higher rated amp of your choice there's tons of deals on slightly used or used amps in the for sale section if your on a budget.

if you have a 2 ohm final load, you can just strap two amps together. and since you bought a 1400 already, just get another 1400.

edit: strapping at 2 ohms makes each amp see 1 ohm.
