12" Sub + Box + 1200w Amp

[DelSlow]

i thought the amp blew?

[Jim]

It doesnt work with the Kicker and MTX subs we had, it kept going in to protection mode, but with this sub, its never kicked it in to protection mode? less draw? or something who knows

[DelSlow]

oh. Bump for a good deal and amp

[Guest]

well 80 for it all you never said?

[Jim]

No, I won't take $80

[Guest]

sounds like the kicker sub may have had a defect from the factory then and might explain why it blew...or it may have had a slightly melted voicecoil and when a more high current amp was on it that didn't go into protection right away it cooked. The whole blown Kicker Solo12 problem makes more sense now.

BUMP for a good sub!! hehe

ohms? cheap amp couldnt handle em?

[torbs]

that amp is rated 2 ohm when in independant mode, and 4 ohm when bridged

[Guest]

2 ohm in independant and 4 ohm when bridged....its gotta be opposite of that.

[PSiedTSi]

nope...amps cant run a lower resistance bridged...

[camzaro28]

stick with mono amps for subs. maybe things have changed though, as i havent been paying much attention to the car stereo world for the last few years.

Its correct. 2 ohm stereo output is theoretically equal to 4 ohm mono.
