noobslayer77 Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 i know what your dealing with man. It was a huge struggle to find an amp that would do what i needed at 1.5 ohm... lol like how the hell am i supposed to do that without guessing and if i screw up, i could fry my woofers (weren't cheap). so i eventually decided to just save up and go with the jl amp. those w7s dont like too much over rated, if at all. i'm sure you'll find exactly what you need, patience is key. but its worth getting it right the first time. one thing to keep in mind is that 100-200 watts less than rated is going to be a negligible difference to your ear. it takes double power to gain 2-3 db (in a perfect world) which is when u can first notice a change in loudness, so i wouldn't sweat getting the rms spot on. I think you'll be blown away with those jbls. they are soo sexy. good luck! 2004 Jeep Liberty Limited 2 13w7s skar 3500 cnf mids (soon) xs batteries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have replied earlier, but I was measuring the output of my amp with a yardstick . . . What you hear is not the air pressure variation in itself but what has drawn your attention in the two streams of superimposed air pressure variations at your eardrums An acoustic event has dimensions of Time, Tone, Loudness and Space Everyone learns to render the 3-dimensional localization of sound based on the individual shape of their ears, thus no formula can achieve a definite effect for every listener.

MaxMays Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 FYI the MkII's sounds much cleaner running at 3ohms. Trying to go lower on the amps i had (DLS A6) got super hot and music starting becoming slightly inconsistent unless i was going 80mph on the freeway, At that point i wasn't paying much attention to the sound but for cops . At this point your running into having to do a Big three upgrade. instead of having to deal with that headache i realised the Subs played loud and clean enough with the subs wired at 6ohms, then subsequently 3 ohms when i got both amps hooked up seperately. This was also only on the 10' MkII. The 12' and 15' are capable of consuming about 200-400watts more . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
