Hey All,
New here, and new to car audio... I recently acquired a subwoofer box with 2 rockford fosgate 12" subs. I have never messed with subs in a car, and I've been doing a lot of research, but am being met with a lot of jargon, and nothing really makes sense to me. From what I've seen online, these subs are very powerful, and can move a lot of air. That's not what I'm looking to do. I just want to fill in some of the lows that my 4 speaker system is lacking. I'm not trying to rattle my teeth out, or shake my car to death. The speakers are RFD-1212's and here are their specs.
The sub's are both in one box, but they are wired to their own separate inputs. This is how each speaker is wired.
I'm looking on Craigslist and marketplace for an amp, but I'm not really sure what I'm looking at, and some amps only put out 50 watts of power at 4 ohms, no mention of 2 ohms. What Is the minimum power requirement I need to run these subs? Any input is appreciated
Thank you,
Chris
