what voice coils?

2400 between the 3 would be more than enough, those are sq drivers, they're not meant to be extremely loud, just clean over a broad range or frequencies.

your choices are power at .67, 2.67, or 6

personally id go for 2.67 and get an amp such as the kicker 2500, should do the job well enough, i just hope you have the electrical to back it up

dual and all set up on i think 1.3333 ohms there 4 ohm woofers or i can set them at 2 ohms when set up for .666 ohms which ever

all togther!

He's doing 165dBs with these currently. I dont think he has problems with his electrical. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

What the hell are you talking about? Your wiring choices are 3.67 ohms or .67 ohms. You have dual 4 ohm voice coils, you can't change that.

I would go with something like the Sundown SAZ3000D. Wire to .67 ohms, and you should be around or above 1 ohm after impedence rise. With this amp, you'll have plenty of overhead if you change setups later on. Plus, you'll be running far below full tilt, so you'll prolong the life of the amp (not that reliability should ever be a problem with a Sundown). $879 from soundsolutionsaudio.com with full warranty. Not available again until August though.

if i run them on a zx2500 idk if that would push these woofers good enough i mean thermal power is like 900 right so i was recommened these A1800 which is a 1000 rms a piece so im thinking like 3k or close to it?

SAZ 3000d

No one here thinks a 3000D at .67 would kill these?

I think he'd be just as **** happy with a 1500D or similar.

He could try an AudioQue 2200D, realatively cheap and will give him what he needs for sure.

 

[Chevyboy10 10+ year member]

right but i cant get my hands on a 3000d till august and would it be worth to do that over what i have with 3 amps ( A1800)

 

[MisterGrubbs 5,000+ posts]

Main thing is

A tad more power, probably.

Less space, definitely.

And it's a Sundown mane
