What 2 12" subs would you recomend for an Orion 2150?

[darkhrse99]

I have an old school Orion xtr2150 that I need to get fixed. This is a 7 year old amp, that I'd like to use with new school technology. Any suggestions for 2 12's that will be optimal with this amp? I used to run a Kicker solo 10" before it blew. Can this amp even power 2 12's?

Thanks

Jason

ummm what power does it make at what ohms?

It's rated at 150x 4 ohms, but everyone says it's under rated.

Bridged @ 4 ohms it will generate 600W at 12V, more at 13.8, and even more at 14.4V probably peaks in the 725-750W mono range.

Will it drive two 12's - hah! With ease my friend! If you keep within the ohm load rating it will run as many woofers as you like. It can also be run at 2 ohm stereo with a minimum of 300W per channel.

That is a very clean sounding, extremely well built power amp. Just remember to properly configure the SLF-1 crossover under the pop-top cover. It retailed for about $800 in 1996 and had a street price of about $650 and it will best anything out there in it's power range today.
