[QUOTE="fithwheel, post: 8667559, member: 674179"] Check out Rockford fosgate wiring wizard There are 3k amps you could go with that are less then 800. If I had a couple of x subs I'd want to hear them in a proper enclosure with the appropriate amount of power before i made a decision on them. You might not be able to answer this but are You feeding that jl amp a 1 ohm load? Idk why but it's threads like this that reminds me of guys who go out and buy a hayabussa for their first motorcycle. No offense op. I just think it's important to have a decent understanding of how things work before jumping into a high powered system is all but you're in the right place at least. You're amplifier amplifies the signal from your hu. If it's a clipped signal then that's what you're amplifying. At the end of the day a clipped signal is a clipped signal no matter what causes it. Hu amp bass boost eq etc. That's what your speakers end up getting a clipped signal Stop thinking in terms of power think in terms of clean signal Dirty signal in = dirty signal out. [/QUOTE]
