possible 3-12w6 setup question

[jonnybusa 10+ year member]

I have a chance to get 3 older version 12w6's for very cheap. I always liked the jl w6's, and wanna try something different than my xxx 15. My question is to someone who knows how I could run them w/ my orion 2500d. I think they are 6 ohm DVC subs, and dont know the best way i could run them, and get the most outta the system. I dont know if I could run the amp in 1 ohm mode, because I really dont know how many true watts the w6's can handle.

thanks

Check this Tutorial out for wiring up your subs...

What will your amp put out @ 4-ohm? If you don't know search, because I am sure that the Orion amp won't run @ 0.67-ohm.

My Kicker KX1200.1 amp does. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

it will put out between 800-850 watts @ 4 ohms.

I really want to know if I'll be doing all this for nothing and the 3- 12w6's will not be loud enuff and I am definately not getting rid of my 2500d

I run the JL audio 12w6v1's....I have 3 of them in a ported box at 4 ohms.....I have 1000w rms to the 3 of them....man is it loud...they are nice subs...but i really want some RE SR 12's though.....my subs are like 8 years old...still going strong...not even broken in it seems....my amp is not 1 ohm stable though but it is 1000w @ 4 ohms...so it all works out
