From what Ive seen the average person could use around 2k, maybe a little more daily on a DP and be set.

HDC3 15s would like that power in my opinion

Don't get the wrong idea here now people. We rate the DP's at 1500 RMS for a reason. 1500 can get them going very well! If you want to push a DP to its limit is a different question.......what power will take a DP to its limits thermally? mechanically? maybe thats what you should ask

Check this thread out for a reference of DP's on 602 rms clamped each

yes, true you have a good point. thats why i asked because of the 1500rms rating. maybe two death rows....in a wall maybe???
