USACI rules and my newest system.

that says SQ. classes are different in SQ.

SQ is what we were talking about the whole time, atleast I was. I thought thats what dkc62 was talking about. I said the SQ had only 2 power classes. If he was talking about SPL then it was a misunderstanding.

looks like your head judge dont know what he's doing then perhaps? hehe

What do you mean by that??

If it was SQ. Forgive me. I was talking SPL.

Yes, SQ. I don't compete in SPL even though SQ cars get metered and is very small part of the overall score. Quality of install and Sound Quality and functionality of alarm are the biggest parts of the SQ score card.

I was talking about spl. Sorry whoever got them mixed up or me not being more clearly.

Well back on the topic. Should I go with two Rubicon 702's and be in the 0 -600 watt class or what other amps do you recomend. I'm just going to do a couple of sound off's a year and I don't really need to beat the sh!t out of my subs.

Help a brother out.

Ummm...Yeah, There was never a 0-300 class in SQ IIRC. The OP was talking about SPL.

And whenever I ask someone how much power they are using. And they tell me the 4 ohm rating of the amp. I feel like punching them. ONLY USACi uses this Ghey 4 ohm/Divide down system.

Also to the original poster what car is this going in?

It'll be going in a extended cab Chevy S10 or a Toyota Tacoma. Which ever I feel like buying after I sell my Monte Carlo.

Find the baddset 2400rms amp you can find. Must be at 1ohm though. If its at 2 ohm you go up a class.

Thats the problem. I can either go .5 or 2 ohm mono, or 1 ohm stereo.

Soundstream Picasso 15's dual 4. 400 watts rms.

How about the KICKER ZX1500.1 amp? I'm not sure if it's in the 0-600 watt class though.

So you only have 1 15" D4 driver? I wouldnt even think about putting 2400rms to it let alone 1000rms.

 

[dkc62 10+ year member]

I have 4 of these 15's. Each one is dual 4 ohm.

Ahh ok...

1 IA 20.1 @.5 ohm would work fine. 1 Sundown 1500 would also work fine (I have no experience with the sundown)

Gotta make sure you have an electrical system to back it up.
