I dont think the amp has enough power to run them. What do you think about the amp and what amp would you use to power them. |

Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 2642 Registered: Dec-05 | get an amp putting 2000w rms, i think they're dual 4 ohm so get a soundstream picasso 2000d... that would be good and kinda budget... if you're tight then get PA a 3000db or hifonics 2006d |
