Silver Member Username: AfroopuffPost Number: 283 Registered: Jan-06 | I am getting a pair of EF-51 Components (as in 1 set of 2 speakers):http://www.alteraudiousa.com/ProductInfo.aspx?productid=EF-51 from alter audio. Anyway, first off my question is...is it 120 watts to each speaker, or 60 to each speaker, or do I have to do like 10 to each tweeter and then 50 to each midbass or whatever. 2nd question is, with this new RMS, what is a suggested amp. I was thinking of sticking with electronic designs because I really like their nine.1 and I wanted to sort of stay the same company, but bridging and all that really confuses me so I was just gonna ask, what amp should I get and how do i wire it? |

Silver Member Username: JohammbassIRL Post Number: 639 Registered: May-06 | OK, you should about 120W RMS TO EACH SIDE. So Left woofer + tweet = 120W and the Right woofer + tweet = 120W. So you need an amp that does 2x120W at 4ohms stereo, 2x150w would be just fine as well. For amps look at DLS, Arc Audio, Zapco, Sundown Audio, Phoenix Gold and a sh:tload of others |
Silver Member Username: AfroopuffPost Number: 290 Registered: Jan-06 | Sweet Thanks man.... My only question would be should i be getting a mono amplifier that can do 2x120-150 at 4ohms or a 2 channel that pushes 120-150 each channel. Also i was thinking about goint with the CDT CL coaxles for the back of my car : http://www.alteraudiousa.com/ProductInfo.aspx?productid=CL-5EX Theses recomend 60 Watts each....so is it possible to run these cleanly off my head unit (Pioneer DEH -4800MP: 2076_310069880_291048449%2C00.html,http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/pna/v3/pg/p roduct/details/0,,2076_310069880_291048449,00.html) or should i get an amp that can support both these speakers....which would be like what? So a synopsis....2 channels or one? and can i run the CDT CL coaxles off a pioneer DEH-4800MP head unit or do i need it to run off an amp...if what sort of amp will run both sets of speakers? THANKS |

Silver Member Username: JohammbassIRL Post Number: 647 Registered: May-06 | Your head unit will not run the coax's nicely, because your HU's RMS power is not more than 4x18W. I would not suggest 2 sets of speakers but if you want must go that route then the amp could be something like this: http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=470 |
