[QUOTE="Cbglasscock, post: 8270911, member: 660724"] I switched amps from a lanzar 800 watt amplifier that was under powering my subs significantly- (really only about 70 watts rms) to a hifonics brx1600.1d. The new amplifier was putting out about 900 watts total to each sub (jl w3). It says that they can handle 300-500 watts rms a piece, so I don't really think that I was overpowering them. One thing that I noticed is that when I turned them on after getting them installed by my local shop was that it didn't really sound any louder. Was something wrong with the setup because I would think that switching from a junk amp with 70 watts power output to a bigger, better amp would make them get a lot louder. [/QUOTE]
