Disaster.



Find something more heard of.

It does not give a rms wattage ratting, you should find a amp the puts out 500-600 watts rms per channel, or bridged mode. Peak wattage does not mean as much as rms(continuous) wattage. I have the same subs and I am running 560 watts rms and 600 rms on two two channel amps both in bridged mode.

Brian W @ 2009-03-08 11:07:22

you will be much better off by getting a monoblock amp instead of getting a 2 channel one. it will perform and sound better. the best possible amp you could get to fit those subs is the alpine pdx1.1000. i also have those 2 subs and i have a rockford fosgate t10001bd which goes great with the subs and really pounds them. but if ur looking for something cheaper i would get a hifonics bxi1208d or a hifonics bxi1608d. either one will be pretty nice for the price.

stumuffin8493 @ 2009-03-08 11:22:15

look for rockford amps.. there underrated.. my P300-1 rated at 300 rms puts out over 600rms. or look at US amps on ebay, there good and not a bad price

i have a kicker zx500.1 amp and 12in cvrs should i bridge at 4 ohms ? or 2 ohms what would sound better.?
[Question]
Whats the differnt between 4 ohms and 2 ohs

Robert L @ 2009-03-08 07:39:05

4ohms

Hol C @ 2009-03-08 08:08:57

well what do you mean by sound better... lol in my book loud sounds good to me... but ya if your looking for better SQ (sound Quality Duh) then 4 Ohms but if you want better spl then go 2 ohms... Personally there isnt that much of a difference but if ur ears can spot little details you will notice a bit of change between the two

Chris S @ 2009-03-08 08:13:02

Which model of CVR did you get, the dual 2-ohm coils or the dual 4-ohm coils? That will tell you which you can do. I will assume you bought a pair. The dual 2's can be wired into a 0.5-ohm load or a 2-ohm load; the dual 4's can be wired into a 1-ohm or a 4-ohm load. The ZX500.1 is rated at 500x1@2-ohms. At a 4-ohm load, it probably puts out 250 watts. If you have the dual 2-ohm coil subs, wire them into a 2-ohm load, and each sub will get 250 watts.

I would have bought the 2-ohm subs, and a ZX750.1 amp.



You can't tell which way it is wired (2-ohm vs. 4-ohm) by listening to it. It sounds the same. The difference is how much power the amp puts out. Most amps put out more power into a 2-ohm load vs. a 4-ohm load.

Why does my amplifier Clip?
[Question]
Well basically Im powering a car 300WATT Rms amplifier inside my house, on the manual it says it consumes 33A, I powered my amplifier by a 18A 12V Computer Powersupply, all worked fine, If i turned the volume up (Didnt used to clip) too much the Powersupply and amp would shut off. So I went out and bought a 750W computer powersupply which gives 60A at 12V, ive hooked it up and im getting thundering bass at high volumes, however if i turn it too high the amplifiers CLIP light blinks, what does this mean?



Thanks. Btw my neighbours are lovin' it alright..
I see where your coming from, but when this amp was in my bro's car (13.8v W/ car engine running) The light used to come on at about the same volume.
Oh yeah btw When the amplifier clips the subwoofer makes a really disgusting, disturbing, distorted like sound.

The clip light comes on when the battery voltage dips.

GibsonEssGee @ 2009-03-08 08:56:53

you have the gain on the amp set too high

KB @ 2009-03-08 09:07:40

Your gain setting on the amp is too high. It is recommended that you turn the gain 1/2 a rotation down from the point of the distortion.

Run to the closest place that sells lights

hook em up!

( everyone has christmas lights laying around!)

hook em up! you can fool anyone!

snowb1133 @ 2009-03-08 08:49:12

Im guessing this speaker is a subwoofer? Go buy a replacement, if its costly then tbh just quickly go buy a ok one, and turn the gain down on the amp.



We'll your going to have to quickly go get some new lights..

icecoolwas99 @ 2009-03-08 08:52:17

Compromise with what you have, the show must go on, see if you can call in any replacements and go buy replacements right now
