Gold Member Username: N2audioLawrence, Ks USA Post Number: 1514 Registered: Mar-04 | I looked at several different sites. Some just said "4 ohm". Some said Dual 4 ohm, one even said "4 ohm (dual 2)". The picture makes it appear as though there ARE 2 voice coils, but they're on the same side of the sub which makes me wonder if it's just an in and an out which I've seen occasionally. You need 1200ish watts ideally. For that much power I'd definitely look for a mono class d amp, but I'm still not sure whether it should be 1200w at 2 ohms or at 1. So for starters how about the infinity 1211A for a pair of DVC 2's or svc 4's -- http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=18702 and the audioque AQ1200D for dvc 4's -- http://www.audioque.com/aq/AQamps.htm |

Gets loud, sounds good, and will last a good while. I put mine through h3ll. Shoot me an email at: lowhz01@yahoo.com Kevin |
