RE SX subs..

[ruel1977 10+ year member]

guys can the RE SX dvc2 ohms can handle 1ohm load from a 1ohm stable ampli?? ir i can burn my subs. coz in DD the lowest impedance is .34ohm. any inputs will greatly help... thanks //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

by the way im powering it by a 2000rms amp

as long as you dont put too much power to the sub, then yes a 1 ohm load is fine

x2

also a great sub...i heard integra88's off a zrs10 and it was nice....has me wanting to get one...just poor lol.

so i'll just set the gain for a minimal power??

not necessarily

what amp is it?

Is your SX a 10", want to sell if so?

Yes, it's the amp you have to worry about when wiring to lower resistances usually (you just have to find an amp that can handle it and then see if your sub can handle the power your amp will then put out when wired to 1 ohm, etc.).

i run my amp .7 ohm on a single sx 12". it sounds great.

i have a 15" RE SX subs and i will power it using sound magus 2000rms amp at 1ohm in 14.4 volts.

the re sx is only 1000rms... what can you say about it??

i had 2k on my old sx for some time, held up like a champ

so can the SX handle the 4.6 box volume at 36.5 hertz??

guys do you think that im not badly beating my subs and shortening its life by wiring at 1ohm??

It has nothing to do with the ohm load of the sub. It is the power to the subs you should worry about and if the AMP can handle the resistance that the subs are wired to.

As long as you do not send them too much power you will be fine (playing them distorted) if the amp is 1 ohm stable and the sub is dual 2 you are fine just do not exceed the 1000w rating at 1 ohm.

 

[david in german 10+ year member]

what is your amp rated at 4 ohms? If it is a true 2000 at 1 ohm it should be close to 900w at 4ohms. If you are uncertain how to set the gains you should run the sub at 4 ohm to be safe.

i know ho w to set the gains... its 800 rms on 4ohms.. ill just set the gain in 10 o'clock position..

what do you think??
