Bronze Member Username: Myuhh1Post Number: 14 Registered: Feb-06 | I have 1500 watt subs..with a 1500 watt amp..I am going to hook both subs up to the amp @ 1ohm load which would give me 1500watts..What gauge amp kit do I need? Also, what capacitor could I use? I really know nothing about the size of the wires & the amount of power of Caps. Please help. |
