What would you do given the following information:

[Confusedsoul 10+ year member]

up to 800 watts @ 4 ohm with a x600.1. Maybe a little less at 1,2, and 3 ohm.

5 cu. ft. max probably, ported is fine

$250 budget

wanted a daily driver system that is able to sound really nice and play low when the volume is kept to a respectable level and get suprisingly loud when cranked.

So what would you get?

huh?

huh?

Phoenix Gold x600.1 Rated 600w at 1-4ohms, most bench 800 or so at 4 ohms and lose slight power as you go lower.

I think he's trying to find out what sub to buy, given his available power at the mentioned impedances. Although he has a very strange way of asking the question....

Most amps gain power as you lower impendance, not drop power...

I was thinking the same thing, I never seen this before says gives out full output at 4-3-2-1

iirc that amp puts out same power at all loads

 

[Confusedsoul 10+ year member]

It puts out at least 600w from 1-4 ohms, but it has been tested to put out more at 4 because of extra efficiency and the way the xe.load system works. I read somewhere that it would lower output at a lower ohm (think it was posted by a PG tech).

And yes, I'm wanting to know what sub/subs you guys would run given that info.

That's what it's rated at but that is not always going to be the case. It is very possible that is does less power at lower impedances due to it's power supply.

oh, i learned something new today...

 

[Confusedsoul 10+ year member]

ok, so now that we've gotten that out of the way, what would everyone run?

bump, lookin for some opinions on what you guys would run.
