Karkov Posted December 23, 2016 Report Share Posted December 23, 2016 I have 4 sets of these for rear fill... https://www.ct-sounds.com/ct-sounds-strato-5-25-component-full-range-car-speaker-set-pair.html Trying to decide whether to run them on a RF T600-4 or RF T400-4 Which would you choose and why?

06RTCharger Posted December 23, 2016 Report Share Posted December 23, 2016 Wow there's crazy sales on their site. $500 meso comp set for only $70. I wonder what your strato comp set is rated to handle? I couldnt find anything on the page about an RMS or anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder what your Strato comp set is rated to handle? I couldn't find anything on the page about an RMS or anything. The items they are discontinuing are priced to get rid of them. I got the Strato sets from their Ebay site for $39.99 free shipping. I am trying to remember and I believe they are something along the lines of 40 watts RMS per side, per set. Of course I will only have the option of running them at 2 ohms since I will have 1 whole set per channel. So figure 80 watts RMS rating per channel at 2 ohm (the speakers, NOT the amp) so I am wanting to just throw them on the T400 and keep the gain down (I always set everything with DD-1+ and CC-1). Does this make sense? Amp put outs 100+ watts x4 @2 ohms and I have hooked up 80 watt RMS @2 ohm speaker sets... I just wanted others opinions, I don't see a need for the T600-4 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.

ShadeTreeMechanic Posted December 23, 2016 Report Share Posted December 23, 2016 I would use the T600 because I like to over power speakers. lol The T600 would give you lots of head room too. Four sets would be cool, waiting for pictures. 91 C350 Centurion conversion ( Four Door One Ton Bronco) 250A Alternator (Second Alternator Coming Soon) G65 AGM Up Front / Two G31 AGM in Back Pioneer 80PRS CT Sounds AT125.2 / CT Sounds 6.5 Strato Pro component Front Stage CT Sounds AT125.2 / Lanzar Pro 8" coax w/compression horn tweeter Rear Fill FSD 5000D 1/2 ohm (SoundQubed 7k Coming Soon) Two HDS315 Four Qubes Each 34hz (Two HDC3.118 and New Box Coming Soon) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcbrassard Posted December 23, 2016 Report Share Posted December 23, 2016 I would run the T400-4, Dynamic on these amps are around 75 watts @ 4 ohm and would be plenty on the Strato's IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wanted others opinions, I don't see a need for the T600-4 100 watts x 4 @ 2 ohms is rated, spec show dynamic at 139 watts x4 @ 2 ohms. So that 70 watts per speaker thats rated for 40rms/80peak. I think the T400-4 would be a good match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadeTreeMechanic Posted December 23, 2016 Report Share Posted December 23, 2016 The crossovers will soak up some power and if you high pass the sets around 80 or 100hz the power handling will go up. Either amp will make them sound good. 91 C350 Centurion conversion ( Four Door One Ton Bronco) 250A Alternator (Second Alternator Coming Soon) G65 AGM Up Front / Two G31 AGM in Back Pioneer 80PRS CT Sounds AT125.2 / CT Sounds 6.5 Strato Pro component Front Stage CT Sounds AT125.2 / Lanzar Pro 8" coax w/compression horn tweeter Rear Fill FSD 5000D 1/2 ohm (SoundQubed 7k Coming Soon) Two HDS315 Four Qubes Each 34hz (Two HDC3.118 and New Box Coming Soon) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with over powering good components some but i wouldn't these. lol I know i have a pair, havent powered them up yet but just by the looks and feel of them i would keep the power on the lower side. Thats just me though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
