Need a sub powerful enough to keep up with my 2000wrms amp

[acesaines]

Hey guys sorry if you have been over this a million times but I'm looking for a sub/subs that will keep up with my 2000wrms mono block amp, all the shops I have been to have not been helpful at all I ask for something close to 2000wrms and they show me a 800 wrms 15" sub and tells me that's all I'll need, not what I want, so if anyone can help me out with what subs I should get that will take up about 90% of my amps power would be great

Thanks

Josh

you still have not said what amp you actually have. Also taking into account voltage drop and rise a good 800 watt rms sub would be fine on the a 2k amp

Maybe they know the amp you have is only putting out 800w

I either want 1 or 2 subs, 12" or 15"

If it's low end it might only be 800 watts.

I wouldnt go with high powered subs because a 2000 watt amp will not make the subs see 2000 watts all the time. Music is dynamic and there's voltage drops and impedance rise to account for. You wont see more then 1200 rms even if your amp does rated power. A pair of 600 rms 15s would serve you best if you have the space for a proper custom ported enclosure.

Yeah I'm interested in buying subs from here, can I get how much u want for them and specs please

Like said what amp ? Also is it 1 or 2 ohm stable I have a few subs that may work

 

[Jeffdachef 5,000+ posts]

most of these subs will take well over their rated rms, just telling you ahead of time, your amp might not even tickle a sub rated 2000 rms or two subs rated 1000 rms each.
