Gold Member Username: BernymacBME Post Number: 3115 Registered: Sep-04 | get a sundown saz1500 or a ia20 =). |
Gold Member Username: Tremor1127Team Fi Car Audio [:-] Post Number: 1898 Registered: Aug-06 | get a 1500 watt kicker amp from ebay to match the subs, duh... |
Gold Member Username: Tremor1127Team Fi Car Audio [:-] Post Number: 1899 Registered: Aug-06 | i would actually go with a 1000 watt amp though, but ive been through 4 L7s, also... |
Silver Member Username: Kicker101Alberta Post Number: 141 Registered: Nov-05 | did they blow? and also i really just need to know what i need for an amp....Mono chanel?? would that work for the(2) 4 ohm subs? i still dont know.. (sorry for the rookie questions) |
Gold Member Username: BernymacBME Post Number: 3117 Registered: Sep-04 | yeah you need a mono channel amplifier that is stable at 1ohm. If you bought dual 2's you could of got a kicker zx1500.1 amp which is stable at 2ohms. But I heard that the kicker kx1200.1 is stable at 1ohm so check into that. You can probaly find that amp for a good price on ebay. |
Silver Member Username: Kicker101Alberta Post Number: 142 Registered: Nov-05 | k cool, so mono stable at 1 ohm.., also what about Hifonics amps?? any good? and should i go for a 15oo watt amp rms... anyone runin more power to thier 12" L7's? |
Gold Member Username: BernymacBME Post Number: 3118 Registered: Sep-04 | a good stable 1500rms amp should be fine. Also it should be okay for your electrical. If you have $400, spend it on a good quality amplifier. |
Silver Member Username: Kicker101Alberta Post Number: 143 Registered: Nov-05 | so no hifonics? i hear mixed reviews |
Silver Member Username: MendonmafiaUSA Post Number: 285 Registered: Aug-06 | hifonics is straight for what you need and for thoes subs. just make sure its 1 ohm stable i forget if hifonics is or not and then wire all of the wires/coils in parallel for a 1 ohm load. but that sh*t is gonna bump rid man! |
Gold Member Username: Tremor1127Team Fi Car Audio [:-] Post Number: 1900 Registered: Aug-06 | hifonics amps will work just fine. kicker will be better quality but whatever... and yes, my L7s blew. i beat on them alot but never overpowered them or "abused" them. two of them burned up while the other two had suspension issues. again, part of it could have been me but my BLs still look brand new after months and months of absolute murdering... |
Silver Member Username: MendonmafiaUSA Post Number: 287 Registered: Aug-06 | square subs just dont preform like round ones. they distort more the surrounds can wear in the corners, and they can blow for no apparent reason apparently haha. the only advantage of square is more cone area. because i do abuse my kappa perfects and they can handle all of the watts i can squeeze out of my PG 15.0.1 |
Gold Member Username: Denali_on_22sIm just light up my...... Post Number: 2463 Registered: Feb-06 | I'd get a hifonics bx1500d... i'd say it will put out more than the kicker 1200.1 but less than 1500... plus it's cheap... and i can sell you one cheaper ;) |
Silver Member Username: Kicker101Alberta Post Number: 145 Registered: Nov-05 | stupid question what if i get something a little more power full like a BXi1606D or a BXi2607d ? |
Silver Member Username: Kicker101Alberta Post Number: 146 Registered: Nov-05 | will thid be fine? http://cgi.ebay.ca/Hifonics-Brutus-BXi1606D-Class-D-Amplifier-Mono-Sub-Amp_W0QQi temZ280131091239QQihZ018QQcategoryZ64570QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem |
Gold Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 4794 Registered: Feb-06 | that'll work fine. you'll see about 1400wrms from that amp since hifonics is known for overrating thier amps. |
Gold Member Username: Adam_sPost Number: 1650 Registered: Aug-04 | That amp will be fine. It will only put out about 1500 watts rms at 1 ohm anyway. |
Silver Member Username: Kicker101Alberta Post Number: 147 Registered: Nov-05 | k thanks.. but what if i go with one of thier 2600 watts rms amps. do u htink that to much for my l7's to handle daily? that amp will only putout about 2200 watts rms anyway right? |
Gold Member Username: Adam_sPost Number: 1653 Registered: Aug-04 | I think that the 2200 watts will probably be too much and you will end up frying them. |
Gold Member Username: 04redmach1Columbus, GA USA Post Number: 1058 Registered: Mar-06 | Yes, my amps are new with warranty. I will also claim shipment as a gift so no customs for you. Massive Audio P1500.1 would be nice. Shoot m an email. Kevin lowhz01@yahoo.com |
