well ive decided on the 12w7. Emailed PG about the impendance and got this reply: You could wire the sub parallel .75ohms you are correct, but I do not suggest it. The amp will work but get very warm and draw large amounts of current. The life of the amp will most likely be decreased as...

bump... still curious since will be buying one of these withing 2 weeks.

say the amp cant handle it? What could happen? Will it shut itself down before its screwed or am i looking at a new amp and will it affect the sub?

if your sure about this ill definately go the 13w7 route.... at 0.75 ohms how much power you reckon the 800.1 would be feeding it? ~1000?

i dont know if my amp is 'stable' at one ohms. It says minimum load in the manual as 1ohm. Its a phoenix gold 800.1 Titanium Series amp. (The one with the 3 blue leds ). Is it?

bump... still undecided although am leaning towards the 12.

i totally missed this fact for some reason i assumed it was dual 3ohm! So really the 13w7 is out of the question since my amp shouldnt be run at 0.75 . chubby the prices are converted to US dollars. Also the way ive designed my install two subs wont fit into the spare tyre well nicely so one...

Im not too clued up on audio but am learning . Right guys i have a phoenix gold 800.1 Ti already and im deciding between the two w7's. Ill have to run the 13 @ 1.5ohm so the amp will be pushing more power into it right? The 12 obviously has to run at 3ohms. The enclosure is going to be a...

just incase anyone has the same problem got a reply from RE: 'The RE8 is definitely not suited for an IB install. It has a very loose suspension, and a very low Qts. You wouldn't get the best results by using them. ' Ive decidedto goa different route (build an enclosure which attaches to the...

one of my 6x9's does that.... i was told it was blown .... sounded good for the first 45minutes i worked it .

ok lemme rephrase. Is their any reason why i SHOULDNT use any of those free air? (im thinking of going with RE because they seem to be right pricewise)

OH MY DAYS..... i need one of those for the E46 sooooooooo bad. Even if it was just a box which was sealed off at the bottom i could mount 8's inside it firing up thru the existing ports and sound would be better than using them free air.

thanks, the seats dont fold down so its a pretty solid trunk. Anyone heard any of the others?

Im looking to get two but am going to use them 'free air'. Just wanted to know which one you reckon is better suited to do this. (powering with 200x2) RE - RES-RE8V2 (175rms) DLS - DLS-W308B (100rms) JL Audio - JL-8W3V2D4 (125rms) MTX Thunder - MTX-T5508-04(200rms) Digital Designs - DD-1008...

ok but will my amp handle 2 6.5's or 8's nicely?
