does anyone know how much the old version 12" can really take? i was thinking that 250w would be okay but could i do 300 or 350. the old ones are rated at 200w rms.
Yeah i used to have a single 12' alpine type-e old style and i was able to give it 600W RMS without any problems, i now have dual 12" type-r's and i give them 1200W RMS each
col your not giving them 1200 rms each they would blow in 5 minutes. your amp is probobly a piece of sh*t and you think your giving them 1200 but its probobly only like 500
and u cannot give an type E 600rms that fry the sub hes tryin to get u to blow them just put what it says on the sub maybe 50watts more and work it in a bit and once its worked in then put 300 to 350 to it
