Bronze Member Username: Vt_aholeUSA Post Number: 40 Registered: Jun-07 | looking for sql... right now when i turn up my subs they rattle and clip because they arent getting enough power. |
Silver Member Username: DenimWww.TeamSSAudio.com, MD Post Number: 350 Registered: Nov-06 | Are you sending them a clean signal? Sounds like there is distortion more so then lack of power. But maybe consider a Sundown SAE-1000D if you want more power. support@soundsolutionsaudio.com for pricing. |
Bronze Member Username: Vt_aholeUSA Post Number: 48 Registered: Jun-07 | yea i was lookin at that one... i have a D1200 orion which gives them 600wrms which is very little for type rs. what do you mean by clean signal? |
Bronze Member Username: Vt_aholeUSA Post Number: 51 Registered: Jun-07 | what about this one? its only 1000wrms... will i really see a difference from 600wrms? http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=373 |
Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 4773 Registered: Dec-05 | That memphis is good. I think if you're clipping, you should check your gain settings first cuz there's no reason to clip if set properly. About the audible difference, you might perceive something but i doubt a bit. |
Bronze Member Username: Vt_aholeUSA Post Number: 52 Registered: Jun-07 | i have the gain all the way up because it only puts out 600wrms and my two subs handle 500wrms a piece... i dont think that its clipping really, i just doesnt sound very clean when i turn it up. like when i listen to rap really loud the subs seem to choke and dont vibrate cleanly like they should because they are in a sealed box. |
Gold Member Username: 04redmach1Columbus, GA USA Post Number: 1060 Registered: Mar-06 | Hey Alex, shoot me an email. I can give you a great deal on a Sundown SAE-1000D or RD 1000.1. The RD 1000.1 does close to 1200 rms, I am using it in my daily driver and VERY efficient. Running it off stock electrical on a Focus. Kevin |
Gold Member Username: 420alldaylongPost Number: 2261 Registered: Sep-06 | alex Try this before you buy a new amp. Set the amp to the volts of the head unit you will be under powering the subs but nothing will happen to your subs if set right. http://www.subwoofertools.com/forum/setgain.asp |

Silver Member Username: DenimWww.TeamSSAudio.com, MD Post Number: 362 Registered: Nov-06 | If your gain is all the way up, the head unit could be putting out a weak signal or the amplifier is not getting enough current. |
Bronze Member Username: Vt_aholeUSA Post Number: 53 Registered: Jun-07 | i took the car to a shop yesterday and the guy said something about matching the voltage on the HU to the output of the amp... so he set my gain levels correctly. he said that i am still underpowering my subs tho and thats worse than overpowering them? how is that? |
Bronze Member Username: Vt_aholeUSA Post Number: 54 Registered: Jun-07 | and i went to that site to figure out my target voltage... it gave me 24.5 volts. i really dont know what that number means. |
