JL E2150 question

Kevin Dube New member Username: Ultra57 Post Number: 1 Registered: Sep-05	Posted on Tuesday, September 27, 2005 - 17:40 GMT Will the JL E2150 work with components that are 110 RMS and 180 PEAK. Rainbow 6.5 They are 4ohm and I need to know if this AMP will be good and how to wire it ?

Isaac Gold Member Username: Carguy Post Number: 4418 Registered: Nov-04	Posted on Wednesday, September 28, 2005 - 03:09 GMT That is a weak amp. For starters, it's only 45w rms @ 4ohms and 75w @ 2ohms. Most components are 4ohms. Other than that, it's a good amp. Discard the peak power ratings. Not useful at all. The good news is, even though it may be only 45w rms, it'll still sound much better than stock HU.

Will it work without hurting the speakers or AMP or do I need to try and upgrade through JL for a different one ? My friend wasn't sure how to hook them up as well on the E2150 appreciate your help here

It's a straight forward amp. Nothing special. I can't get hold of that amp's manual so I can't walk through with you. If you can post pictures of the connectors, I am sure I can find out what goes where.

He just wasnt sure on how to physically hook up from the speakers to the amp correctly I believe. His Dad has the Rainbows which I screwed everything up wanting them. This AMP and the JL XR's were recommended through JL. I just want to use this amp if I can. He actually has the amp with him so I cant even desribe anything to you.

Isaac Gold Member Username: Carguy Post Number: 4423 Registered: Nov-04	Posted on Wednesday, September 28, 2005 - 13:16 GMT That's all you need unless the rca preouts are for subs. The amp has rca input and output. The input is for your deck, and the output is for 2nd amp. It also has high level input for cutting into your speaker wires. Not as good as rca, so use that as your last choice. For frequency filter, set it to HP or off.
