Title is pretty self explanatory, looking for something to prevent me from buying a zapco st-850xm.
here ya are, its a solid amp.Title is pretty self explanatory, looking for something to prevent me from buying a zapco st-850xm.
Have you ever had it stable at 4 ohms? I can't see anything about its 4 ohm rating.I have a Phoenix gold sd600.1
Probably more than you need. Does 300x1 at 4
400x1 at 2ohms
600x1 at 1 ohm.
It's as big as a DVD. You can put it anywhere and efficient. Great amp. $120
If its stable at 1 ohm it can handle 4 ohms easy. The lower ohm rating, the more stable the amp is at whatever ohm load above that rating.Have you ever had it stable at 4 ohms? I can't see anything about its 4 ohm rating.
Its always better to have more power on tap than not having enough. there's also box rise and voltage drops to account for as well. Being wired at 4 ohms, your rise will be high up to the 6-8 ohm regions so your real power output will be less than 150 watts if you have a 300 at 4 ohms amp.. This should be a decent amp for you which should be pretty future proof as well when you want to add another sub.

I know very little about sub's, but I'm planning on running mine from 40hz-100hz, and I wanted really tight bass, nothing boomy. Almost everything in a ported box sounded boomy to me. I'm not sure I even know what I want, but u read somewhere that running the sub in 4ohm in a small sealed box will help keep it tight, so that's why I chose that sub... I'm open to other ideas, but from what I know, that's a step in the wrong direction?Its always better to have more power on tap than not having enough. there's also box rise and voltage drops to account for as well.

If you havent bought the type R yet, I'd suggest you getting a soundqubed hds208 instead. D4, wire to 2 ohms and if you get another one, wire to 1 ohm.
I'll consider it, I need to get some more knowledge and opinions. I don't have an amp, sub, or box yet, so my options are pretty loose.The 300 was based on metering it and I use it on my e8d2v4. If you want tight bass I would suggest the woofer. With this amp it is amazing.
As a bit of an alpine fanboy, I have no idea what that is... Its it a MRV? Sounds interesting. Does it have a subsonic filter?$60 shipped for an Alpine that does 300x1@4Ω and 500x1@2Ω.
Note, Most premade ported boxes you can buy online are 100% garbage The boomy sound is from a poorly engineered and designed box. Along with bloated basslines in most of today's music.I know very little about sub's, but I'm planning on running mine from 40hz-100hz, and I wanted really tight bass, nothing boomy.
