Better subs for Hifonics BX1605D

Post by brentbarrie »

Im planning on getting 2 12" Alpine Type R (SWR-1222D). Do I want the Dual 4ohm or Dual 2ohm ones?

Thanks.

kinda depends on your amp and what it will handle.....1 ohm.....2 ohms or 4 ohms

get the dual 4ohm ones even though you could run that amp at a half ohm but you dont need that much power. good solid amp and it makes great power too.

You must excuse smoker...he never reads subject lines.....

I would go with the dual 2 ohm ones. If you are running 2 you can run them in parallel/series combination wired to 2 ohms and get 550 to each sub. As long as you set your gains right, you should have no problem sending each one 550 watts.
