how many watts for brahma to hit

[Bum@home 10+ year member]

does anyone know how many watts you actually need to power this sub i know the website has it at 1000-1600 but does anybody have some first hand experiance because that would be cool if you could do less and still have it pound pretty good. I wanna get 1 sealed brahma 15' maybe a phoenix gold 1000 watt titanium if the sub atually sucks that much power down.

it says on the site how many watts u should use, depending on how big the box is.

yeah i was just reading that graph thing so those are the optimum results for size and wattage. Is that graph right on or do you need more or less in ur opinion

i'd say hit josh(jlaine); rangerman, or bonusboo up and ask them this question.....believe all of them have experience w/ the brahma.....but my understanding is the website specs are correct.....peace

600W is PLENTY to get it very loud. For daily driving, 400-600W would be more than enough.

um.. considering the graph was put up by the owner of the company, and the co-designer of the **** woofer.. I'd venture that it could maybe be correct? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

take it as complete truth.. and follow it blindly into the abyss..
