Bronze Member Username: Shea88Cartwright, Manitoba Canada Post Number: 35 Registered: Mar-05 | I recently jus got 2 10" 4 ohm Alpine type R's (500 rms, 1500 peak), now ive got them in a sealed dual 10" bassworks box wired together at 4 ohms. I have a kenwood kac-x811d amp to run these badboys, in case u dont know the amp heres a link( http://www.techronics.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&product_id=2062&a ff=45847) Now these thump pretty decent but I want better, My question to you is this amp running these subs to full or close? Also is there a different way I cud wire them to get more? |
Silver Member Username: RzarectorCoquitlam, Bc Canada Post Number: 414 Registered: Dec-04 | each sub is only seeing like 250 watts so yeh u could get more out of them..they are 4 ohms though so ur gonna have to spend a lil more money to get a 4 ohm stable amp that delivers high wattage like a jl 1000/1.. u could also get each sub there own amp and wire each to 2 ohms |

Silver Member Username: Alias747MN Post Number: 367 Registered: Apr-05 | If you have 2 dual 4 ohm voice coil subs, the only impedances you can run are 1 or 4 ohms. Unless ofcourse you wire each sub individually then you could have (2) 2-ohm loads. Keep that in mind when you are looking for an amp. BTW, def look for a different amp, Kenwood amps aren't very good. |
