mach 5 power handling

[traksta15 10+ year member]

going to buy a mach 5 ixl 10, going in a 1 cube @ 34hz box, you guys think it can handle my 1200d @ 1 ohm? Or do I need to buy a new amp? (looking at an arc audio ks 1000.1 if this doesn't work out).

p.s., the orion 225 hcca is rated to do 400x1 @ 1 ohm, anyone know what it actually puts out? I know it's underrated, buy by how much?

You think that box is small enough...?

mach 5 says 0.8 for ported, it's actually a tad too big.

why would you buy a new amp? just turn yours down a lil

That size is fine. It will take 1kw Ok, but make sure its clean power. Quantity is limited so make your choice fairly soon.

Was thinking about selling the 1200d anyways.

I was just making sure it wouldn't be too much for the ixl.

any insight on the hcca 225?
