Sundown Sa-12 D2: how to power it


conbon

Recommended Posts

So i have a Sundown SA-12 and im kind of hesitant on what to give it. Its in a 1.75c ported enclosure and i would be using a Rockford t1000 to power it. So here is my question. Should i feed it 1 ohm (1500 watts) or 4 ohms (850 watts). I have a kinetik hc2000 so im not worried about the power being too much im just worried for thesubwoofer itself. Can it take that much power? i dont really have the money to go spend 200+ on another sub if i blow this one. Please give me your feed back! thank you.

1500W is too much, wire to 4 ohm till you get another sub.

yeah thats what i was thinking. its still gonna bang at 4 ohms especially in a hatchback. plus with that battery and a LC7i

1000 watt rms amp= I'm going to get 1500 rms to my subs,

Sounds about right.

Wire it at 1 ohm you'll never see the 1k anyways.

That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

What's confusing about that?
