Post Number: 7440 Registered: Nov-05 | your making no sense lol even at 900rms @ 2ohm it is over the limit for the l7 and at 1ohm .. its well over the limit.. if you know what your doing you might be fine over-powering that sub IF the enclosure is built to specs and it is a clean unclipped signal.. and you don't abuse the setup trying to make it do something it was not designed to do you have a nice amp.. time to get a nice sub |
