Help please (even though it's been asked 1000 times by others)

Ok, SVC 4 ohm. So 600 watts at 2 or 8 ohm. Hmm. The 600 wrms JBL or Orion would be perfect for that.

And with those sugguestions, my mind just blacked out. You know it when your body says "Sleep, ****it!" So I'm off for the night. Good luck, Naughty. =)

id buy amps local. not nit picking or anything but if you need it installed its a good idea to buy at least a few things from the people installing it. prevents alot of headaches

Not quite - that amp will do 600WRMS at 1 ohm...which you can't get with one SVC 4 ohm driver.

the sub works well on 200-350 watts each

Locally there's just JL, Memphis and Kicker although I know I've seen Orion locally elsewhere....... looks like the Memphis could be a good deal but I was recommended a PR200.2 from them if I got a Memphis PR12 w/box and they did not know of any of these brands mentioned here....

Every dealer is like that, IMO. If they don't sell it, they don't wanna hear about it.

 

[BadGirlIROCTeg 10+ year member]

So which Orion do you recommend? There are soooooooo many different types - it's rather confusing!

 

[Raven 10+ year member]

The one that does closest to 600 watts RMS at 2 ohms.

 

[BadGirlIROCTeg 10+ year member]

It looks like that Orion I posted above does that? Am I not reading the specs right?

I just ordered an Atlas 12.

the memphis pr200.2 amp and 2 memphis pr 12s is a good setup if you dont wanna spend a lot of doh. I used to have it in my monte and it wanged. Best bang for your buck if you ask me

i've got a 12" idMAX in my integra powered by a modded mtx 1501d. bought em both used.. 220 for the sub and 320 for the amp. it sounds GREAT. make sure youve got a crossover set on your fronts and give them some good power from a better amp and u shouldnt be distorting.

It does 600 watts at 1 ohm - 400W at 2 ohms. The power difference may or may not be noticeable...most likely not, especially if you have a slightly-larger-than-recommended sealed enclosure.

Good choice on the sub, btw.

 

[BadGirlIROCTeg 10+ year member]

So a 600 watt for sub and 200 or 400 for fronts?

 

[audiolife 5,000+ posts]

are you doing 1 sub? if so 200-350 is all you will need (250-300 would be prime x 1 @ 4 ohms) and 50-100 per front coax. jls arent built to take alot of power unless you run them active.
