wire it in so that u put the amp into 1 ohm, you will get the impendence down low enough, but make sure that the subs can handle 1 ohm. 1000 watts to 2 subs is good.

I think what he meant to say is make sure the subs can handle 1000 watts. The subs don't need to handle 1 ohm. 1 ohm is what the amp "will see" if you wire them correctly. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

each sub can do 500 rms...so if I can push 1000 wrms to both subs at 1 0hm I would be good. Lemme know if that sounds good. Should i go to the 2 channel amp that will give 400 wrms per sub at 2 ohms??


Also if anyone could help...What is the displacement of this box? and what is it tuned too? (its two 10's in a single chamber) Will this be tuned down to 32hz? and about 2.5 cf3 displacement with the subs in? Lemem know what you guys think

BOX IS
W 30.5" x H 15.5" x L 16.5"


PORT IS
W 24" x H 14.5" x L 14"
