[QUOTE="solidcrowd, post: 7214331, member: 565671"] I have my 12" SI Mag in 2.5cuft @ 32hz. I contacted SI asking them if my enclosure was to big since some songs are muggy and sloppy at times. SI said my enclosure is too big and needs to be 1.8-2.0. SO... I'm giving the mag 1200wrms @ 1ohm (rated at 12v) and am expierencing mugginess, voltage drops and light dimming. My questions are: 1.) Should I wire to 4ohms? (my amp is rated 500wrms @ 4ohm (rated at 12v), My car runs at 13.8-14.1. 2.) What is the formula to figure out if there is an audible difference between to different wattage ratings? 3.) Is there a formula to figure out how many watts I am putting out at ___w @ 4ohm @ 13.8v? Instead of the rating 500w @ 4ohms @ 12v. [/QUOTE]
