thanks a lot, those were the exact answers i was looking for. I have been doing more reading, and I am looking to setup a home system for primarily music, so I was going to go with a stereo receiver, but i have also read of using an integrated amp if i dont need a tuner(i sometimes listen to...

Hi, I have been out of the audio scene for awhile. A couple years back I setup a system in my truck, built my own box and everything. Now, i am interested in setting up a sound system for my room. I would like to be able to connect some speakers/sub(better than the logitech's i have now) to...

k, thanks for replying.

Hi, I have a rockford 12" punch hx2 running off a jbl 600.1 in a 2 cubic foot box with a slot port tuned to 35hz. Its loud, but not quite loud enough, and i don't really want to spend more money on another sub/amp, so i thought i would refine my current setup to get the most from it. This is...

or does anyone have any ideas on how to make my current setup a little louder? I kinda don't want to buy another sub, so if i can get this one a little louder, then that would be great. I won't buy another amp, but please share any ideas on box size, shape, configuration in the cab, etc. thanks.

Hi, I was wondering if you guys could help me out with deciding on a different sub. Right now i have the rockford 12" punch hx2 running at 2 ohms off the jbl 600.1 in a 2 cubic foot box ported at 35hz. Right now its loud, but it still isn't quit eloud enough. I want to keep the price under...

i can only hear teh "slap" when i am outside w/ the seat reclined forward versus inside w/ the seat sorta muffling the sound. It actually is not really a slap, but i can just hear the cone moving. What does distortion sound like? Thanks for replying by the way.

oh yeah, i don't know if this would make a difference, but the sub is in a f150 reg cab and i can only hear it when i get out of the car and recline the seat forward, but when sitting in the car, i can not hear it, probably because the bench seat is right on the sub.

Hi, I got a rockford 12" punch hx2 in a 2 cubic foot ported box, and i have found that when i turn the bass and volume up considerably, there is a point where the sub begins to make a slapping noise, or i can hear the cone moving. I am guessing this is distortion, but it does this and it feels...

Thanks for replying. Here's the real scenario, i have a 12" punch hx2 4 ohm dvc, wired in parallel, which means a 2 ohm load correct? then say a jbl 600.1 would give it a good 600 watts? I still don't understand this. why would people then wire multiple subs together if they receive less...

hey, I have been reading a lot of posts and i see guys writing something like they have a 1000w rms amp running to two subs that have an rms nowhere near 1000w. What is the reason for this? Couldn't you configure the wires so that say two subs will both receive their rms while using an amp...

I have had it on for about 2 weeks, i thought it could be bridged but the instructions said not too, oops. I have never maxed it out, and have only been running one 12" in 2 ohms off of one channel. Reply if interested and we can work out a price.

thanks for replying. So, generally, the heating is nothing out of the ordinary? Its 2 ohm stereo stable, which what its wired in right now. Thanks.

Hi, I have a pioneer x962, and i have my punch hx2 in 2ohm wiring hooked up to one of the channels, so its getting a little under 200 watts. I have noticed that my amp gets a slightly warm when the volume and bass settings are low(bass at -4), but should it even be warm at such little power...

hey, thanks for replying guys. Well i don't know what my bass boost was set at then, but now its set at .2 i think, but i have not been blasting it. Could that cone noise be from too much of the bass boost? I think i will check out a local dealership that knows the rockfords, hopefully they...
