what is the wattage on the amp...i would give the l5 500-700wrms

 

[wyatt315 10+ year member]

its an 800 wat amp

 

[GMCJimmyslt2000 10+ year member]

at what ohm, and is that peak..

i have never heard that brand before, was it cheap, if so it pry way overratted by a ton.

i would pickk up a new amp, what vc config are they, if d4, get the kicker 750.1

to answer ur question yes it was cheap but i got a deal on it... so im not sure bout the retail, its at 2 ohm. 800 wats is the max

If it's 800 watts max, it's probably in the ballpark of 350-450rms.

+1 for buying a better amp. $100-$150 on a new amp and that l5 will be set.

i plan on picking up another 10 inch l5 in the next month or two do u still recommend powering it with the kicker 750.1 or is there a another amp thats better?

PHOENIX GOLD RYVAL V8001 1600W CLASS D MONO CAR AMP is this good for 2 kicker l5s?

Pheonix Gold makes pretty good amps I'm sure, other brands to look at:

Hifonics

Kicker

Alpine

JBL

Sundown

Incriminator Audio

JL Audio

Oh and what load are the VC's? 4 ohm?
