thehoe92 Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 I have 1500 watts run to mine takes it fine daily. slam it full tilt for a while and it will only get mildly warm. MAKE SURE that you have a clean signal and the box is built to specification. Quote Wouldnt be thehoe92 without teh purple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newls1 Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 I had 2 18" BL's in my older build, decent driver, and took my 1200RMS each fairly well. Not the best sounding speaker, but a decent speaker...... Quote I love my staffie So anti FACEBOOK it isn't even funny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
