AP Zoutes Posted March 17, 2007 Report Share Posted March 17, 2007 yeah that amp will work your actually underpowering them by 1/2 but it will work. Wire the subs in parallel. + to + to + of amp and - to - to - of amp will equal 2 ohm load whcih is what the amp is recommended for and it will put out 360 wrms according to manufacturer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HondaCivic360 Posted March 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2007 Ok thanks but i steal don't get how u tell how much watts u need for a sub and u help me on that lol sry im a noob at this haha. The reason is because i thought that 300 rms means u need 300 watts for a amp i don't know lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sean 371 Posted March 17, 2007 Report Share Posted March 17, 2007 No 300 watts per sub equals 600 watts total. So you need an amp that can put out around 600 watts. Or you could under power them.

AP Zoutes Posted March 17, 2007 Report Share Posted March 17, 2007 (edited) because the subs combined run off 600 wrms (300 ea x2) and the amp only put out 360 rms x 1 so that is 240 watts under the max rms of the subs. and max rms is generally where you want to be or a little more. Headroom is oh so nice Edited March 17, 2007 by AP Zoutes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AP Zoutes Posted March 18, 2007 Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 x2 the RF Punch 6001 would be a good match and available at Best Buy for a little less money the Alpine 707 would work as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
