For the Power Acoustik amp, it does most power at 4ohms(both channels bridged). So you want a sub that will present a 4ohm load to the amp to get most power out of it. There are 2 ways of getting this, a single 4ohm sub, or a dual 2ohm sub wired in series to make a 4ohm load. You kind of lost me he...

Im kind of lost here because somebody else told me this about it, (Same question i asked here)

"For a single sub, you'd want a 4 ohm driver."

actually, you will probably not be able to notice a difference in how loud it will be. You will be comparing 560rms(if that is its rms power) and 600rms, which will sound just about the same. You need to double the watts to get a 3db gain, or a good noticable difference. The only difference would b...

Are you sure that Power Acoustik can handle 2ohm bridged. I would have to say it can only handle 4ohm bridged in which case you want a dual 2ohm sub. If you upgrade the amp, you are going to need a dual 4ohm sub to get the most out of the amp. My suggestion would be to decide on which amp you are a...

Im getting a kicker 05S12L5 from my cousin for very cheap. He is also getting me the matching box that they sold at circuit city, the vented enclosure. My question is with the ohms. My amp is a Power Acoustik 980 Watt 2 Channel 560RMS at 2 ohms bridged. I may replaced that with a JBL Mono 600.1 2ohm...

Okay, im going to be purchasing my subs very very soon, and was curious about your opinions. Im getting either one of these very cheap from my cousin, he has a lot of money, and works at circuit city and said he could get me either one of these, but i have to let him know tonight which one i want. T...

I have narrowed down my search for a new sub.. and these are my options. Im not really sure which one would give me better, louder sound. Suppose these were hooked up to the same amp, which subs would sound better. -2 KICKER CVR12-4 CompVR 12" or -1 KICKER CVX12-4 12" COMP CVX Both setups ...

I am looking to get a new sub. I have actually 3 12inch subs at the moment but there all crappy. I have 2 12's the duals, and then an alpine type E. I wanted to get 1 single 12in sub that would outpower those three together and sound better, in terms of quality and hit harder.. I was looking into th...
