Weigel21 Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 Looking at needing/wanting 2K at either 2 ohms or .5 ohm. I'm not familiar with amplifiers that can operate at under 1 ohm loads, but I'm sure others on here can ramble of plenty. However, I'm not too sure there are many amplifiers that produce but a mere 2K at .5 ohm. Whats the budget for said amplifier? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrionStang Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 MMATS run @.5 is nowhere near SQ. LOL, good luck. SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weigel21 Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 LOL, forgot this thread started with the talk of SQ, and here I am after my nice long speech talking about running at .5 ohm, WOW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weigel21 Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 Then again, those Monsters are SQ subs, they're strictly SPL, so who's to say just how much sonic accuracy would be lost running at .5 ohm. Though I still stand by my statement of there not likely to me many .5 ohm stable amplifiers one would recommend that produce but a mere 2K. It's more likely one would find amplifiers that are 2K @ 2 ohms, wait, what am I saying, I know of a few right off the top of my head, but budget still hasn't been specified.

bjballar41 Posted June 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 im not a 100 percent on budget im just tossing ideas around in my head. not saying im going the mmats route just stated my buddy just became a dealer for them. i was just trying to see if there is a huge difference in a sq sub and a spl sub or if its more in tuning of the box and that nature.

White Lightning Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 Well I've been away from car audio atleast 2 to 3 years.Welcome back to Car Audio !!! Old Schooler Linear power guy here ... I have been out of the game since the late 90's. Back then I ran strokers and Shocker subs were popular, DD had just began to open up shop. To me a SQ sub is in a sealed box with low power.I'm more of a flat response ported and tuned guy myself ... However, I do enjoy the great sound of a well built sealed sub stage ...

Travis Retrum Posted June 16, 2014 Report Share Posted June 16, 2014 If u are looking to go sq then u go for subs like focal or jl audio a lot of the mainstream brands are sq subs. A lot of people get confused on sq and spl subs. For instance the jl w7. Everyone thinks its a loud sub or ment to be loud. When in fact it is a sub designed for sq. a lot of sq products are going to be more expensive because it takes a lot more work to make something accurately produce sounds vs making something loud. Just my 2 cents. Car audio installer for 3 years. We sold brands like jl audio and focal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weigel21 Posted June 16, 2014 Report Share Posted June 16, 2014 I always thought the W6 was the closest thing to an SPL sub that JL makes. I have some mainstream brand subs geared more so for SQ than SPL, though I'm not so sure I'd even classify them as truly being SQ subs. Infinity Kappa Perfect 10.1 Infinity Reference 1260w Boston Acoustics G310-4 Polk MM1240D Polk MM1540 Polk DXi104 Anyways, if SQ is your goal, seems a T-Line enclosure could well be the route to go, if you have the room and ability to build the enclosure. I heard mention of them a couple times before joining this forum then just recently a thread was made speaking of them and so I opted to hear a little more about them, not having really heard too much of them in the past. Seems they are truly for those seeking SQ. Here's the thread, it may peak your interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjballar41 Posted June 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2014 I doubt ill have the room for a tline. Love the look of the box but its going in an s10 ext cab. I may could figure something out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
