New member Username: DeluxPost Number: 6 Registered: Jun-06 | I just got a Power acoustics ov4-800 amp (http://www.epinions.com/content_158809165444) and i was wondering if its any good. What subs would sound the best with it, i was looking at two 12" type-r's. Can the amp push those and how many watts would it be pushing into each speaker.. Also what is the difference between rms and watts, as u can tell im a complete newbie at this so any advice greatly appreciated. |
