hey guys i need more power for my 12s. i have 4 12s sealed at this time that i want to send 1400 rms to all four or so. i wana start off with 1200 for the 4 . each sub is rated at 300 i just wana see how they like there rated power . i want to know if its worth running 2 subs at 2 ohms off a amp that will put out 600 at 2 ohms and do this for the othere 2 as well? would this b better then me just wire them all to 1 ohm and get lets say a ap1800 for some head room? thanks

one will be a lot easier to wire and you wont have to deal with all the setting matching

yea and for the price of the ap amps its not that bad. i think i will just stick to one amp i was thinking it would b better for my voltage but i have a 100 ah battery in my trunk and i can allways upgrade if need to to another battery etc.

tbh. a lot of people worry way to much about their electrical around these forums, ive personally ran a saz1500 @ 2 ohms. so around 1k rms off stock electrical with only the big 3 done. I also got a buddy who was running a d9 @ .66 with the big three done and a sears battery in the back

i know what ya mean, but if u have a small alt like i do i need to b on the safe side. i have a 03 tiburon with kicker 4 ga and i have some knu 4 ga for my back battery. i did my grounds under my hood i have to get to my alt its a pain in the *** to get at . i think i will b ok with 1200-1400 with my battery and for the most part im not gona sit at idle with the volume at 50. even if i give a demo i will bring my rpm's up to at least 1500 and the demos would never b more then 10-15 sec a song.
