Lowest RMS rating a Death Penalty can handle

[Cudda_Kine 10+ year member]

On second thought. What is the lowest RMS that the Death Penalty & Warden can play at? I was thinking about trying "this" amp

Amazon.com: Clarion XH7110 850 Watt Mono Amplifier: Electronics

Before I try the Soundstream/If I wouldn't need the soundstream anymore.

I would order the Subwoofer into Dual 2ohms. Wire "it" up as 4ohm first. With the Clarion Amp @450RMS. If I like the sound of "it". Just order another Clarion amp. Rail "it". Switch the subwoofer wiring to 1ohm and everything will be fine. Just want to make sure that I don't damage the Subwoofer. Running at a very low RMS rating (450RMS). Will I be able to play this sub @450RMS for now?

EDIT: Just getting my facts together before I make the Initial Purchase

Um, you could successfully run it off 1 watt if you so pleased. I mean you're not going to hurt a sub running less than it's rated RMS, but I don't see why you want to under power a sub like that.

I've heard that you can damage "it" If you extremely underpower a Subwoofer. I can't remember the name of "it"

If you are going to run this low of power no reason for a Warden, hell no reason for a Death Penalty..........

I guess my car audio shop has been telling me "fibs"

No. I'll just be testing the Amp actually. I will order ANOTHER one right after if "it's" Great. I really just want my DPX11551 back. But I can't find any trusted dealers on the internet.

EDIT: As in I will be using TWO clarions for that one sub. At one ohm. over 1600watts all together. But I don't want to waste money for two amps when I could just test "it" out with that One. But at 450watts. Just to hear the sound quality

So there will be no clipping whatsoever running "it" low powered like that? I'm just going to chance "it"

1600watts is still way under powering the "new" Death Penaltys and the Warden......

Well. The max for my car I think will be 3000RMS on my Alternator (150A). "It" will be for Daily use only. As in ALL day long. Should I order the DP 1/2 ohm and get three XH7110 amps? For some reason. Clarion is a MUST!!!

EDIT: Three amps "IT" is!!!

EDIT 2: I don't want to make another thread. But has anyone used the XR-4S Kenwood amp? This will fit in my panels so where I could fit Three Clarions at the same time.
