SimonGF Posted November 11, 2009 Report Posted November 11, 2009 well, you could make it all very simpel and just hook it up to a 150 watts x 2 amplifier and call it done. OR you could follow this video and make your hifonics amplifier work in your house Quote
treossi Posted November 11, 2009 Report Posted November 11, 2009 you should just make sure your impedance is proper with the reciever you have.. and call it a day.... but double check everything with a DMM Quote Team sundownWESTCOASTSPL.COM we're throwing dbdrag events very soon visit the website for details
treossi Posted November 11, 2009 Report Posted November 11, 2009 i would never run it that way.. i'd run them off your reciever if possible Quote Team sundownWESTCOASTSPL.COM we're throwing dbdrag events very soon visit the website for details
SimonGF Posted November 11, 2009 Report Posted November 11, 2009 (edited) How safe is that? And do you know how you would go about doing it with a 2600 Watt amp? i googled his amplifier in his signature and its a 2 channel amplifier, 2 x 150 watts at 4 ohm. the p1´s rms is 150 watts, so it would be safe to run it that way. but i would deffinetly recommend running it on a home receicer Edited November 11, 2009 by SimonGF Quote

jesterjames Posted November 12, 2009 Report Posted November 12, 2009 i use computer PSU's to power my car amp's i got them all for free so i couldnt beat it, however i HIGHLY and i do MEAN!!! HIGHLY recommend getting a Lab Power Supply like this, if your set on using a car amp or already have a car amp http://www.powersupplydepot.com/productvie...roduct=16502+PS Computer PSU's are rated like sony xplod amps they claim 500w but if you try to pull anywhere near that the voltage tanks Quote Pioneer 500UB 1 LVL4 15" 4.3cubes tuned to 35HZ BXi1606D 1/0 Red top in back JBL 5 1/4's front Infinity Kappa 6 1/2's rear 145.7 Legal on music New Audio Control
calvin_115 Posted November 12, 2009 Report Posted November 12, 2009 The computer power supply method works. I'm running a 750 watt Corsair 60A @ 12v and it's never gotten hot, barely even warm.

Hellbound Train Posted November 12, 2009 Report Posted November 12, 2009 Buy a plate amplifier and build your own powered subwoofer. Quote
