Just blew one of the subs and they don't make them anymore meaning I have to buy two subs (RATS!). Given my amp specs (below) and fiberglass enclosures with limited airspace, what subs would you recommend for my broke a....? AMP SPECS 1000 watts x 1 @ 4 ohm mono 1500 Watts x 1 @ 2 ohms Mono 2060 Watts x 1 @ 1 ohms Mono Variable Low-Pass Filter: 50Hz - 150Hz @ 24dB/Octave Variable Subsonic Filter: 15Hz - 40Hz @ 24dB/Octave Variable Bass Boost @ 45Hz: 0 - +18dB Variable Phase Shift: 0 - 180i½ THD: <0.08% Signal-to-Noise Ratio: >100dB Frequency Response: 5Hz - 250Hz Input Impedance: 10kO Input Sensitivity: 300mV~8V Tiffany-Style RCA Jacks Parallel Line-Out RCA Jacks MOSFET High-Speed Switching Power Supply Heavy 4 oz. Pure Copper PC Traces at All Preamp & Amplification Stages Internally Mounted Fan-Cooled Power Supply Solid Brass Nickel-Plated Terminal Blocks (4-Gauge Power, 8-Gauge Speaker) 4-Way Protection Circuitry: Thermal, Short Circuit, Overload & DC Offset |

Silver Member Username: MmaudioconceptsPost Number: 686 Registered: Jan-07 | You will need 2 subs that are Dual 4 ohm and around 1000watts Rms (given that this amp is really a 2000 watt amp). Post your budget and the list will begin. Also do you have electrical upgrades? IF not you may want to think about running the amp at 4ohms(1000watts rms) so that you have proper power to the amp. |

Know this isn't relative to your question, but just though I'd mention it. The amp is connected to the stock "Premium" Boston Acoustics system and it actually sounds very good. The amp is connected using the C2A-CHY Can Bus interface. "The C2A-CHY provides a 4-channel pre-amp output signal for use with aftermarket amplifiers. This interface uses the full range fixed level headunit output in conjunction with CAN-bus messages and delivers a 5v RMS (max) pre-amp output with fading and balancing capabilities. • 4 channel output. • 5v RMS (max output). • Data controlled remote turn on wire Plugs into the vehicle's CAN bus and provides a stereo RCA audio output for adding aftermarket amplification. Provides full range audio output 20-20,000Hz. Audio output level is controlled by the volume of the factory radio. Here's a diagram: <img> |
