CheezyMane13 Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 Is each sub down to 1ohm or together are they 1ohm, Also would you run two amps. You can get a crescendo 3k Watt Amp for like $550. Times two $1100.

chapo123 Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 Crescendos has seen pretty decent over all I'm just trying to get it right the first time around. does any one know the actual benefit between stetsom and crescendos? be careful with stemsom bro. ive been hearing a rumor around saying they give like dirty voltage/watts or somthing like that Quote Steve I don't know why but everytime I see your new paint I want a Dr. Pepper...... is this normal? heres an analogy for you. running a high power stereo without a fuse is like having unprotected sex with that hot chick at the bar with the sketchy sexual history. Sure you may be fine and nothing happens but that one time something does happen you're fucked. i dont want woofer broke like bass sound clip clip and voice coil overheat 2 sa12s, saz1500 build log http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/91183-chapo123s-sundown-build-log/page__gopid__1250604entry1250604 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
