a 1500w amp should be able too run a 750w RMS sub, shouldn't it? no problems? or would a 1800w amp be better? or a weaker amp..?

What are the specs of the amp and sub? RMS, Peak, ohms......?

the codes · Feb 16, 2012

the sub came with the box and all I know is 750w rms peak, and the amp is 1500w, says 1500w x 2 ohms but I figure it puts out about half that, and says 700w rms x 1

How many channel is the amp, 1 or 2, and how many ohms, it is bridgable?

the codes · Feb 16, 2012

it's a mono, not bridgeable, powering 1 750w rms peak 10" sub, and I'd have it wired to 2 ohms

If you over power your sub you will blow it. i would get a 5-750 watt amp for your sub. so you dont blow i, have seen 2 kicker comp 12s blow because they were hooked up to a 1000 watt amp.

okay glad I didn't order it! I'll start the search and post my findings here.

thanks man

I currently have mine set to the max, 800 per sub. Sony xplod amp and 2 10 inch kicker subs, with a homemade sealed box. Whatever you do. Get a smaller amp or swap out the amp for a 2 channel amp and get another sub.

Trust me, I've blown one out and it's pretty sketchy while driving down the road when it blows out.

or maybe this one, a guys review says his birthsheet says its putting out around 450 rms instead of 300, what do you guys think? which one?

It really depends on the peak and what ohm they're on.. My buddy had two 10's that were 750rms each and had two 1600watt amps pushing them on 2ohm.

damn, gosh this stuff can get so confusing.

You can just set the power limit on your amp...well at least you can on mine, I have two dual voice coil subs rated at 300 rms and 600 peak powered by a 2000 watt mono amp...i have the subs bridged and the amp turned down...works just fine

I think I'm gonna go with a power acoustic 2000w amp, reviews say pretty consistently it puts out about 850-875 rms, so with the gain down think that will be a good fit.
