I'm looking to power 2 10" audiobahn in ported box. they're like I said, 2 10" subs total 600watts RMS. I am assuming breaking it down would be 300watts RMS each sub. My question is...What kind of a amp should I be looking for?
A Class D mono amp? 1 or 2 Channel amp? and I know I should get lower wattage amp then what I need so I don't blow the subs. All I need to know is what I should look for in a amp to power these subs. I'm not doing any SPL comps., just for kickin' around. Any help is greatly appreciated! You can contact me VIA email: djbeakerb@yahoo.com or AIM: djbeakerb
Thanks again! |

But wouldn't I want to get something with less RMS due to the fact of being able to blow the subs since there's more power? |

okay...but wouldn't there be a large possibility of blowing my subs with more RMS watts then what the subs are rated for?
The subs I have are rated 600watts RMS togather.
300watts RMS each.
Thanks. |

yeah, you should be fine. its better to put more clean power into the than more distortion. |

now that i think about it they are audiobahn woofers, not a good idea. find a 600 watt rms amp. |

As long as you're careful with them you won't blow them no matter how big an amp you have on them. When you see them bottoming out and/or clipping, you obviously need to exercise self control and turn the volume down  Unless of course you want your subs damaged. |

MTX MXA6001... 600 watts rms at 2 ohms. You can get one on ebay for like 100 bucks (refurbished). |
