    How to power a single 12 ohm subwoofer?

    Interesting. Anything around 100 clean watts should make the sub sound alright. Better than the crappy Bose sub that's in there now.

    How to power a single 12 ohm subwoofer?

    Yea, I know! I used to be into the car a/v thing years ago, but family life and kids took over. Now that I have a new vehicle, I'll probably get back into it.

    How to power a single 12 ohm subwoofer?

    I believe the mono amp I have is a Nakamichi that puts out 300w RMS. According to JL Audio, the sweet spot for these subs is 125w. Being that the amp won't output that much to a 12ohm impedence, it looks like this combo will work fine for me.

    How to power a single 12 ohm subwoofer?

    Yea, I pulled the sub out of a JL Audio box with three of these subs in it. I was driving all three with the one amp a few years ago. The box is too big for me now and I wanted to at least try to make use of the speakers.

    How to power a single 12 ohm subwoofer?

    I have an old JL Audio 10W0 12 ohm subwoofer sitting around and I want to install it in my truck. I have a few amps sitting around but I'm not sure how to power a 12 ohm speaker. One amp puts out a mono 4 ohm load, the other puts out (I think) a 2ohm load when bridged. Can I use either of these...
