Cozmoo Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 (edited) Hey I have 1 rockford p3 for now with a 340 watt amp. the sub has a 500watt recommended rms and a 1000 watt max. my buddie just called me asking if I wanted to buy a new amp he just picked up for 100 bucks in great condition which is 2000watts. I am trying to save up for dual 12's as I only have 1 12 right now. Could I run this 2000 watt amp on my 500watt sub for now? Obviously not at full power, but would I be able to tune it so it only received 500 watts? or what.

kl0wn Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 (edited) Yeah, you can run that high of an amp on the single sub, just keep the gains low.

Cozmoo Posted December 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 really? okay sweet. This is a hell of a steal for me as that amp is in fantastic condition and will tremendously help me when I get my dual setup. I really need to go get this professinally tuned or something because I would rather enjoy living without fear of clipping rather than having a friend tune it by ear. haha. because none of us have o-scopes.
