Can 2 RE SX 10" handle a sundown 3000?

Can they handle being powered by a sundown? They have less of a mounting depth than my DDs. So I'm thinking of getting 2 of these. Your thoughts please.

Well **** that sux. I'm having a problem finding something with the limited space and depth I have. Any ideas maybe? I have 3.3 cubes gross to work with, and 6" max for mountng depth.

I beg to differ a little bit. If your responsible with the gain, I dont see why not.

Ive heard of stock FI Qs being pushed by a 1500d, so it is possible just with a degree of common sense. Which im postive you have oxsign. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

On music they'll hold up just fine. If you playing 1 minute test tones, no, they won't hold up. I had 2 10" SX's on my Solid Audio F2500D @ .5 ohms (although with a lackluster electrical) and they were just fine.

Should be fine if you're responsible with the power. If you don't need to use all of it, then don't. No need in putting more strain on your electrical if you don't have to. Get the subs if you want, they'll get loud regardless.

Two loaded 10'' BLs will. 6.25'' mounting depth with no pole vent to worry about.

get dual 2 so you dont have to run it at 1 ohm?

Loaded BL> sx. A stock BL is about equal to an sx from what I've been told.

So what would you say to 8 RE 8" ported off of the 3000? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

If you know how to use a gain a volume knob, yes.

im runnig single SX no 2000rms amp.. and it's fine for loud burps and musical for daily. its **** loud! SX is a great subs and can handle such power unlike what other said that BL is greater than SX.. then do a test!

next month i'll feed my single SX 15" with AX3200de amp... then i'll post the result!

I know SX's can take at least 4kw for burps...

This will be for a DD. I may burp every now & then, but very, very rarely. It's mainly for musical purposes. Well if the consensus say that 2 10" SX can handle it, then that's what I'm kinda leaning towards then. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
