rms is 500. But the dealer said he recomend over 750rms.
car is a 93 Buick Lesabre.
subs will be facing towards the back seat.
its the only way it could fit.

are u looking for 150 on burps, or daily.lol

daily try a Precision Power DCX 1500.1 it would give each sub 750 rms, still not sure about the 150dbs though, if it is a burp try a zapco c2k 9.0x and u might be able to get to ur goal. good luck

Daily, The Ppi 1500.1 is a very nice amp.
Im still thinking of a prd1000.1 on each sub. That should hit harder.
I think these subs can take 1000 all day.
I read on that same forum some guy, used a 2500d on a Tsx 12 for burps.

im not sure they will be able 2 take 1000 daily without blowing fast. maybe 1000 per on burps, but daily would be brutal on them. if u want to get loud u might want to look into some more subs.

1000d on each sub with gains set moderatly should be okay for a daily though.

An amplifiers gain control does not determine the maximum power that an amplifier can produce. As long as the preamp/drive signal has sufficient level, the amplifier will produce its maximum power output level. The gain controls are used to match the amplifer's gain to the gain of the other amplifiers in the system (in the case of a multi-amp system). The gain controls also allow you to match the amplifier(s) to the head unit.

So 1 prd1000.1 on both of them should sound nice, if u want more output u should look for a bigger amp 1200-1500 rms

ok. i know that, just really tired & high. I will hook them up first, then make my decision. they prob will crush with just that 1 amp.

If i had a bigger vehcile, I would add 2 more of these subs.

This might be loud enough for me though. Got to hook it all up then see.

If im going to keep this amp the dual 4ohms will work perfect. But if I wanted to put each sub on a amp, I should then get the dual 2ohms.
So I wanted to figure out the best setup.

I take it these guys on TERMPRO Forum know what they are talking about also:

I have been involved with a Jeep that runs 4 MTX 1501Ds on a pair. Does around a 150 when strapped. Street C. I believe they use 1 amp per sub for daily. I also think they are still on their 1st pair (have not lost a sub yet)

You should be fine with 1K each.


Whats is "Street C"?
He then says 1K should be fine on each.

Rovin the TSX 15s have a way bigger maggenet than the SSI 15s. I also read on that same forum that the TSX gets just as loud as the SSI! they rate the SSI @ 750rms. they rate TSX @ 500rms
Its seem like Treo like underating their products. The same products got 30% rms increase in same year. lol

the ssxd1500.1 is a sweet amp, I think its only 2ohm stable. my dealer wanted to sell me his for 550$

Im seriously thinking about 1000d on each.
My buddy thinks im really starting to over do the whole car audio, lol

Im sure this will be plennty loud as is.

Rovin, yes, u are right..
it may be too damn loud, im not really competeting! $550 US is alot of $$ for an amp.
Treo sells that amp for 800$

I will just have to listen to how they sound before making any decissions now

I know these subs can hit 150db!
2 of them, But not with 1 amp!
Other people seem to be hitting 150db! These are competition subs, but i just realized I dont have money to buy enough amps, to put on each voice coil!
If im goin to make 2 15s hit 150 I need alot of power! 1 amp on each voice coil!
It may be easier if I get 2 more subs, but I have no room, just a car.

Didnt somebody hit 150db with only 2 JL 13s w7?
These subs have more excursion than those. I also read that on the Termpro forum.
I think these guys are all about competition. Some of them hold records up to 2005.
I am in no way trying to compete.
Just want to sound good and get really really loud! without spending too much... even though i spent more than planed!

Guys when I get this thing hooked and measured, I will share the numbers with everyone. But anything is possible, depending on the install!

Jesus Salazer, start a new thread, maybe someone will help u.

This forum should also block all annoymous users from posting! If u post u should be a registered member; just like www.TERMPRO.com does. Damn kids. What joy/pleassure do they get? lol


Chauncey what numbers are u hitting?
With those 4 15s?

B your slightly confused though. did u notice about the "guy who knows what hes talking about" hit 150 with 4 of those subs... you only have 2. and i believe 13w7s have like 30mm or more each way linear excursion. i dont think tsx's have more than that or even that much period. if ur not competeing than dont focus on the number and just hook them up and i bet you wont be dissapointed. but u really should buy that ssx 1500w amp. i love their amps. save up some and get it!

see... but dont get urself down if u dont hit that 150. i hope to hit 150 also with my new system which is 4 15 SEs. but im going to run a 16cuft box with 180sq in of port area, i bet i'll have a better chance than you and im still not gonna be depressed if i dont hit 150. why? because i know thats still going to be so dman loud im going to mount a switch in the front of the car so i can only run 2 subs and 1 amp most of the time and run the other amp and other 2 subs when i feel like showing 'er off.

Trevor those 4 15s will sound insane!
Thats a huge boxxxxxxx....

Trevor that dude has 4 15s giving them approx 1000 each. he hit 150db
Someone else has 2 15s giving them 1501 MTX on each voice coil. 4 amps 2 subs.
He also hit 150db, just with all that power on the amps.

B,

when the guys over on the Termpro forum say that sub can take 1000wrms+ they are not talking about taking that kind of power for daily use.

500-750 each for those subs daily would be plenty. that memphis 1000w amp you have would be just fine.

the guys on Termpro that give that sub 1000wrms+ usually dont do it for daily use. they do it for 3 seconb burps in competition and they boxes are specially built to peak at 1 really loud note (one note wonders). their competition boxes are usually not good at all for daily use, they are tuned at way too high of a freqency.

for example,
i have 1 RE SX 15"...my daily box is tuned to 31hz and it does 138.6 dB, but when i change my port over to my SPL port (tuned to 46hz) it does 148.0dB w/ a jbl bp1200.1.

marshal, that 138.6 was the highest score you could achieve? wasnt that at some really low frequency? you must hit higher than that at like 40hz or so no?

yea...i did 138.6 @ 28hz (but the box is supposed to be tuned to 31hz...so go figure)

i ran an 80-20hz sweep and that is the only peak that i remember w/ my daily port in...i dont remember how loud the other peak was (at a higher freq).
