I apologize for being a complete nooblet here //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

 

I currently have a 340 watt Power Acoustics amp powering two 10" subs. One says Punch 2 on it and i have zero specs on it and the other is a Scorpion X 320 watt amp again i dont have specs. But I was hoping if someone could tell me whether I need to upg the amp to like 600 watts or just upg the whole set?

Well first of all how do your subs sound? Is that amp power rating rims? One thing is clear though, it is better to run the same type of subs so you don't run into cancellation. Check the above and let us know so the people on here can help you better.

Am I reading this right to mean that you're running one Rockford Fosgate woofer and then another woofer of a different kind?

If so, why?

I can't say I have seen any good results with 2 different subs or different sizes of the same thing...

DEFINITELY upgrade entire thing...stay small and get a 400w amp and 2 lil 12's

I mean at first I had the bass boost on (the amp) which i didnt know was a major no-no which produced muddy bass. So I fixed that up last night. Im not quite sure of the rms rating on the amp i'll check. What does cancellation sound like? The subs themselves just arent getting as loud as I'd like //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif.

Well my uncle just upgraded so he gave them to me for free. I think one is either a Punch Z or Punch 2 I cant really tell what it says cuz the logo is crappy and the other says Scorpion X type 320 watts....

So I have no boxes which = no ratings unless i can find tha **** things on the inet.

The amp ratings are as follows:

Model #SL2340 - 2-Channel 340 Watt Amp

MAX Power Bridged: 340

* 4ohm RMS: 80x2

* 2ohm RMS: 95x2

* Mono RMS: 190

* Bridged Max: 340

* Dimension: 8.4x2.3x11.7 (W"xH"xD")

Add some Rockford Fosgate wallop to your low notes with the aptly named "Punch Z" series subwoofers. The 10" RFZ2410 will knock out stirring lows without putting your wallet down for the count.

It has a poly cone for the kind of aggressive, yet solid feel that you don't find in most entry-level subs. It'll go way down low, thanks to a hyperextended pole piece and bumped back plate that allows more room for the woofer's excursion. The aluminum voice coil former transfers heat efficiently, so that your sub is less prone to distortion. 1-year warranty.

Details:

• frequency response 31-300 Hz
  
• power range 50-100 watts RMS
  
• peak power 200 watts
  
• sensitivity 86.8 dB SPL
  
• 4-ohm impedance
  
• top mount depth 4-1/8"
  
• sealed box volume 0.625-0.75 cubic feet
  
• ported box volume 0.75-1.0 cubic feet

This is the first sub.

Lmao I found the website for the manufacturer of the second sub but its obviously very old because they no longer make subs http://www.xscorpion.com/ ....
