Hi everyone.
I have an Avionixx 800.2 that I bought a while ago to run my single ED 12A22.
I decided not too long ago to go with a 2 sub setup due to my ED just wasnt loud enough.
I decided that my subs of choice would be the IDQV3's.
As time went on the price really was keeping me from picking them up.
I looked around and found a deal on a pair of RE SE's.
I initially build the enclosure for the IDQ,s at about 1.4 cu ft ea sealed.
I bought the SE's and now have them installed.
They sound pretty good sealed and I KNOW THEY WILL SOUND EVEN BETTER PORTED.
I DO NOT INTEND TO PORT THEM YET. I dont think I have quite enough room.
Anyway the Avionixx is bridged 4 ohm so its about 400 per sub.
I think the measured voltage at the time I bought it was 12v.
So its probably more than 400 per sub. My voltage reading on my DMM was 13 and change.
I am currently thinking about upgrading the amp to a AQ1200D, Cadence 1000.1 (I think thats the model) or a Sundown.
I would like your guys opinion on this.
Am I going to notice any kind of a difference if I upgrade?
I do know (I think) that the power would need to double in order to see a larger volume gain.
Once again I am not ready to port them b*itches.
I just want to know if I replace my current amp with one of the above choices if it will make any difference.
I will add that I have not done the big 3 and am using stock alt.
