droopyjewel Posted July 29, 2010 Report Share Posted July 29, 2010 (edited) I was giving a dual(name of brand) 2 12" subs in a box. i was told they are 550 peak watts per sub. i have no idea on what kind of amp i should get. i have been looking up some stuff and i read somewhere that its not the peak power its the rms. i have no clue what im doing... so PLZ help me. here is a pic of the same subs Edited July 29, 2010 by droopyjewel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sqsux Posted July 29, 2010 Report Share Posted July 29, 2010 You go by what the RMS of the sub is rated at, RMS is the rated continuous power. I believe that sub is rated at like 150 RMS so you would want around 250 to 300 watts powering them, and I wouldn't go very far over with dual subs. Quote Start out boxy, shape as you move along.

Mosin Posted July 29, 2010 Report Share Posted July 29, 2010 A nice 300RMS amplifier would compliment them nicely IMO Quote Derp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sqsux Posted July 29, 2010 Report Share Posted July 29, 2010 Make that 250-300 at 2 ohm, like this one http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_26848_JL+Audio+J2+250.1+-J2250.1-.html Quote Start out boxy, shape as you move along.
