d-nice88 Posted May 1, 2016 Report Posted May 1, 2016 Can the zv4 12 handle 6.5 watts rms ? (Dual 12 aetup)
RainStryke Posted May 1, 2016 Report Posted May 1, 2016 Seems like a bit much. With 6.5K to work with, i'd be looking into the NSv3's if you wanted Sundown Audio.
d-nice88 Posted May 1, 2016 Author Report Posted May 1, 2016 Just asking since ive seen some guys put a single dc 5k on one.
RainStryke Posted May 1, 2016 Report Posted May 1, 2016 They might have a recone with a much different power handling rating compared to the original.
Karkov Posted May 1, 2016 Report Posted May 1, 2016 Was the DC 5k running at 1 ohm? Was the gain turned way down? Was his ohm rise high as hell? Does he know his cabin gain? A lot of factors play a role, just having/seeing/hearing about a DC 5.0K being hooked to a ZV4 12" doesn't mean it was seeing 5k watts and not only that but does he daily it on music or do burps in competition or? 2007 Chevy Tahoe (SOLD) 12 ~ FI Audio X series 10" w/BP option 2 ~ DC Audio 5.0K @0.67 3 ~ DC Audio 5.0K @1.0 2 ~ PPI 3 way sets (not installed yet) 1 ~ RF T400-4, 1 ~ RF T600-2, 1 ~ RF T600-4 4 ~ CT Sounds 5.25" Strato comps (rear fill only) 1 ~ XS Power D4800 1 ~ XS Power D3400 8 ~ XS Power XP3000 160 stock alt, Mechman 370 Elite, 185 DC Power 320+ Sq.

d-nice88 Posted May 1, 2016 Author Report Posted May 1, 2016 Thanks for the input rain stryke. Liking those zv4s might get them insted of the sp4s... they should take an aa 5k np. With it tuned properly
bassfreak85 Posted May 1, 2016 Report Posted May 1, 2016 Id say about 6kw is safe if your careful. after impedance rise that is about 1000-2000 per driver. your going to have to be mindful but i think your will be ok as long as you properly set the gains.
Karkov Posted May 1, 2016 Report Posted May 1, 2016 ZV4's and SP4's both fucking amazing subs.... 2007 Chevy Tahoe (SOLD) 12 ~ FI Audio X series 10" w/BP option 2 ~ DC Audio 5.0K @0.67 3 ~ DC Audio 5.0K @1.0 2 ~ PPI 3 way sets (not installed yet) 1 ~ RF T400-4, 1 ~ RF T600-2, 1 ~ RF T600-4 4 ~ CT Sounds 5.25" Strato comps (rear fill only) 1 ~ XS Power D4800 1 ~ XS Power D3400 8 ~ XS Power XP3000 160 stock alt, Mechman 370 Elite, 185 DC Power 320+ Sq.

d-nice88 Posted May 1, 2016 Author Report Posted May 1, 2016 Ill just stick with a 5k. And yes they are both awesome but i already owned some fi subs. Wana own me some sundowns now i wana get the free shirt lanyard volt meter and suckers from jp lol...
bassfreak85 Posted May 1, 2016 Report Posted May 1, 2016 if you cna afford the 6kw go for it. they are a-bit less efficient and will east that 5kw up.. i say go with the 6.5kw. they will thank you.
