I recently bought 2 7000w amps for my Rockford 15s. I'm going to run 1 amp per sub at 2 ohm, because they were just laughing at either of my last two amps.

I have the SSF turned all the way down, and the sub out at -10. I'm not losing any volts but I can't seem to turn the sub out up any or it just hurts me an the Tahoe too much.

Other than that, any of you guys have any suggestions? I plan on running these just like this for a long time, so any help on maintaining my system is appreciated. Thanks!

 
Well, the subsonic filter protects subs in ported boxes.. If your box is ported, definitely set that higher. About 20hz for starters.

What 7000 watt amps on what kind of Rockfords??

 
Hurt u and the Tahoe? What is ur question?

Also, yes hurts me from the pressure and hurts the Tahoe as it looks like it's falling apart.

It is ported, but the SSF goes down to 15hz. I haven't found a song that hurts the subs yet.

It won't let me upload a pic of the amps, but they're Viking 7000w amps and the Rockfords are old, IDK the model.

Hey, I've got a Viking 7000 too //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Loving them so far. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/naughty.gif.94359f346c0f1259df8038d60b41863e.gif

Idk Ive never heard 2 15s that hurt my ears or a truck. If 14k is to much try 10k lol
I'm actually only using about 12k ish of them atm. I don't have the electrical for the full 18k they're undoubtedly capable of, but I figure I'll get used to them and be able to move up to around 14-15k ish. The Tahoe isn't going to like it either way. I want to maintain Sunroof functionality.

 
Still don't really understand what you're asking, haha
Any ideas on maintaining functionality of my back hatch and sunroof, but making them stout enough I don't have to worry about them breaking on me.

 
Give them to me. Metered yet? We got a pair of 9915s under the window line pulling a 155 30 second average. Around 42hz peak.
I metered it on much less power, single 7k wired to 1.6nom. I don't have near enough deadener to meter half decent, but it peaks at 38 sealed, so it sounds absolutely wonderful.

I think your windshield would break before your sunroof. The sunroof glass is smaller and shouldn't flex as much. The Windshield is a big un-braced portion of glass, that also has air pressure from wind on it when you're driving. I've never seen subs crack a sunroof

front doors are subs...fyi Go with AudioControl 6x9 components up front and coaxials in the rear. You will be impressed with just changing to that.

If you can find these in your area. Id recommend these for drop ins. They play from 40Htz on up. Sound very nice on amplified power for premium...
