Running subs hard


Jeff4661

Recommended Posts

Ok all good information...

I have a dd1 and a cc1 I was actually planning on tuning subs with a 0db track just to be extra safe I will be running my subs about 150-200rms below peak.

I am doing this Bcs I don't want to buy smaller amps.. I understand this sounds stupid but after I'm done with this setup (If I blow them up) I plan on throwing some subs with higher power handling on the same setup..

Again to all who don't know this is part of my budget build

You tune with the 0db track.. youll be bummed out... trust me

i run my SA's at over RMS i even push into clipping cause its louder. I may get flamed fo that, but it does gain to the ear with some clipping. My motto is: rail em' till you smell em'.

if it's not stankin you and demo-ing hard enough

livin by that made me have a lot of fun

Well I basically only lists listen to decaf music which is actually supposed to be tuned to a-5 DB track anyway I will eventually tune to a -5 when I get a good feel for how this setup will run.. (when to stop turning it up)

Don't exceed thermal or mechanical limits and you're good
