Any suggetions would be great, also, supposed I did use my current amp, what are some issues associated with underpowering? I recall hearing that you can blow a sub if you underpower it, but it never intuitively made sense to me. |

Bronze Member Username: DurskiPost Number: 42 Registered: Nov-06 | Getting these from a fellow ecoustics member, waiting to see what spec he says they are. From what I've read they come in 4 ohm and 2 ohm. This guy said he had them running at 1000w @ 1 ohm. I didn't think you could safely do that with a sub recommended for 50 - 500w rms @ 4 ohms. Also, never had DVC's before, I'll need a little insight as to wiring them up. Budget cheap but flexible, less than 250 would be great. |

If each sub can handle 500wrms (which they can), then 2 of then can handle a total of 1000wrms (the power will be split up between the 2 subs). You will want to wire them like this... choose the first diagram (1 ohm load) http://www.rockfordfosgate.com/rftech/woofer_wizard.asp?submitted=true&woofer_qt y=2&woofer_imp=4 |
