Ive always wondered cj how do you know you are giving it 5k? is the gain up half way? or is there a readout on the warhorse? have you ever actually clamped the amp to see what rise is ? and im glad you went with the xls i love mine and they will get louder and louder

The warhorse has a limiter that controls the amount of power the amp puts out. I have it half way up, so I know it is putting out 5k. After countless hours of conversation with kicker techs and engineers, my understanding is that the warhorse is not effected by impedance rise. If it sees 2ohms per coil at the outputs, then it puts out 10k. The only factor that effects power output is voltage. I have a thread in the amps section about how the warhorse works with some good articles I have found explaining how it works.

The XLs are a bad ass sub! I am very happy with them. I have 4 XL 18s on the way for a build I am doing for a guys Dodge Caravan. Just waiting for him to order batteries and amps.

I will get more in the next few days. I was planning on building the trim pieces today, but I am letting a friend use my shop to do a small install in his dads truck. I will get the trim panels built, wrapped and installed tomorrow. Hopefully by the weekend I will have the amp tuned and crank it full tilt.

Sorry for the shitty pics, but my Iphone deosnt like to take good pics at night. I will get better ones in the morning.

I built a top for the amp rack and wrapped it in the charcoal CF vinyl that I used on the sides and tops of the box.
