Audioque amp

[Lite-On]

Hi All,

I'm still looking for a new amp with enough juice to power my 2 year's old JL 13w7. I like to push ~1500W RMS to that sub.

The AQ2200 amp has 2200W RMS+ @ 1 ohm, but is it possible to wire that amp @ 0,7 ohm?

My sub has dual 1,5 ohm coils, so it can be wired @ 3 ohm, or @ 0,7 ohm.

I don't think that the AQ2200 and AQ3500 amp deliver enough power @ 3 ohm load, so the only option is to wire the sub @ 0,7 ohm

As long as you have decent electrical you should be fine running is at .7, just make sure to be conservative with the gains as I dont think the JL will like 2400+ rms at .7 load. Another option is to get the AQ 1200d, that will do about 1500rms at .7

if u want to upgrade later get the 2200

if u want something cheaper for now get the 1200

a w7 doesnt need even close to that 1500 you wanna put on it to get full output out of it, your just wasting money on power, invest in a better box design/box build

^^right, 750w on a 12w7 got it moving

not to mention if u blow it from too much power it isnt cheap to recone at all

I'm still using stock electronic, but i have plans to upgrade to 2x 200A alternators which should be enough to power that AQ2200 or AQ3500.

I know that 2400rms is to much for a 13w7, i think i'm going to push safely 1500rms to it.

Maybe i'm gonna sell that 13w7 in some month's or years, and get a BTL or Audioque sub... that's the reason for buying a bigger amp

So it's 'safe' to run 0,7 ohm daily on that AQ2200 amp?

How about the sound quality, does that change while running at 0,7 ohm?

EDIT:

1500w RMS to much for a w7? What about 1250w RMS?

I'm currently pushing around 500w RMS to it = way underpowered

750 on it to 1000 is plenty to get all it has out of it

any more is just a waste for a sub thats not even engineered to be loud

[Decaf]

its safe to run .7ohm when u have the proper electrical to back it up on 2200 or 3500

1/0g wire, ho alt, big enuf batteries, great grounds

1200 is the most id do on a stock electrical

wattage needed to reach max output depends on the box as well... there is no magical rms #... again a jl w7 only needs ~1000w... it has a soft spider and doesnt need alot to get groovy

Back when I had 4 13w7's, I used 4 of the Slash 1000/1v2's and they did fine on them. So about 1000wrms on one will do you fine.

Thanks for the reply's

The AQ1200 will power my 13w7 soon =D

Does anyone know a nice amp to power my Phonocar 2/805 door speakers. They are rated at 100W RMS each, so i'm looking for an 2 of 4 channel amp with at least 100W rms at 4 ohm.
