Oh yeah you prolly looked at my sig. Its says I have 2 4ohm subs.... I do and thats what im using now with a mmats 1ohm stable amp, but I also have 2 15" kicker L7's 2 ohm subs. I want to end up using the 2ohm ones. I am changing my sig. right now
Thats what Im doing right now....but i have 2 BRAND NEW 08 2ohm L7's. The 4ohm L7's I got are like the 06 model and have some sorts of wear and ect. I just wanted the loudest of the 2 also, which would be the 2ohm subs wired down to .5 ohms. I made this thread really asking if it would be a smart idea or not to run a system @ .5ohms daily. Some say yeah.... some say no. If so what amp?
Ok maybe im getting mixed up... does less ohms mean louder or just not as clear in sound or both? Okay whats louder here also what would sound better...
Not true the less resistance the more power you need as far as voltage and amperage input go. An amp usually has more THD at lower impedance's so try to stick a little higher on the impedance but not to high you want to still try to feed the sub its rms to get the best sq and response out of it all assuming your enclosure is built correctly. And when you series subs together there actual dc resistance lessens, which means the signal to noise ratio increases. (IN TURN louder cleaner with less power going in.)Ok maybe im getting mixed up... does less ohms mean louder or just not as clear in sound or both? Okay whats louder here also what would sound better... 2000rms @ .5ohms
2000 rms @ 2ohms
2000 rms @ 1ohms
2000 rms @ 4ohms
Those are my options. Just the less resistance the clearer it sounds? Am I making any sense
Awesome, so the best suit for me would be the 2- 2ohm L7's with the Kicker zx2500.1 which does 2500rms @ 2ohms. I thought that amp did 2500rms @ 1ohm. oops! Thanks alot man. That makes me feel better. I really didn't want to do .5 ohms.
You can ahchieve more power out of less ohms but its a DIRTY signal. 2000w@4ohm will be much cleaner then 2000w@1ohm but at 1ohm its not that bad. .5 ohm is pushing itOk maybe im getting mixed up... does less ohms mean louder or just not as clear in sound or both? Okay whats louder here also what would sound better... 2000rms @ .5ohms
2000 rms @ 2ohms
2000 rms @ 1ohms
2000 rms @ 4ohms

Okay, so sounds like 2ohms would be about perfect, you agree and anyone else agree?
Right you are that amp will get the most out of the those L7s. I smell a clean high 140s maybe even a 150.
2ohm is good. Although a majority of the amps on the market put out there max RATED power at 1ohm although on those amps IE (RD audio, Sundown, Incriminator, American Bass, basically any zenon board amp can run .5 although its NOT reccomended. Only amp that I could see could be useful for you would be the Kicker ZX2500 which does 2500@2ohm
I would be really happy to be in the 140's. The problem withis that I'm using a sealed box....94 honda accord haha. It's retarded I know. 4 15's that would be crazy. Btw way your not the only broke one. Haha college is out this Friday so I start back at work. Ima get that kicker amp for sure.
