[QUOTE="Tungsten, post: 110463, member: 546239"] Thanks for the reply, Jmac... No, it will be just a single SWR-1241D sub wired 2-ohm mono. Alpine rates them at 300W RMS (150W per coil) and the MTX amp should be feeding it a little over 200W per coil at +12Vdc. I intend to keep the gain on the 6500D set around 80% of maximum and rarely crank the volume on the HU past 75% of maximum so I figure this will be well within the 1241D's ability to handle and certainly below the 6500D's clipping threshold. Good clean power. Granted, maxing out the 6500D would definitely be more than the sub can handle... and if I ever get to that point I will likely upgrade the sub to something a little more robust. But SPL isn't really a concern of mine at this moment. Just accurate bass. Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
