[QUOTE="azTony, post: 8304515, member: 662646"] I am very new to this and like my heavy metal music. I have a Rockford Fosgate Punch Mono P300-1 amp and a Kicker 10 CVT65 4-Ohm CompVT Subwoofer. I have a few flaws: 1. First I did not put an enclosure in because of limited area (I am working on correcting that). 2. The other thing I was trying to find out was wire size I should use to the subwoofer and does this actually make a difference. 3. Trying to learn more about the Ohm rating. I know the speaker is a 4-Ohm but not sure on the amp, how do I find out? 4. My head unit is a Pioneer AVH-X5600BHS and I used the auto-equalizer and the sob has never been the same. How do I tell if I blew it? My set up is as follows: Head Unit: Pioneer AVH-X5600BHS Speaker Amp: Alpine MRP-F240 Sub Amp: Rockford Fosgate Punch Mono P300-1 Speakers: Polk Audio db6501's, 2 in front and 2 in rear Sub: 10 CVT65 4-Ohm Kicker 6.5" CompVT Subwoofer I have 4 guage wire from the subs to the secondary battery and have a high output alternator. I have limited door space and interior wall space for the rear sub which is why I had to go with the shallow speakers but they really sound good. The sub I am not happy with and looking to move to a 10" but with the enclosure area required building an enclosure may not be possible to meet requirements. Suggestions? [/QUOTE]
