One Down, One 2 Go...

Now that I have found the pair of subs I want ( 2 12" Cerwin Vega-Vega HED 400watt), what amp would be the best to use? Looking to bump a lot. But yet still wanting to here the music as well. Thank you mo for all your help!

another quick question to add to this as well. I have wires all hooked up from my 2 10" Kicker Comps and MTX 325 watt amp. Can I use that wire or will i need to get new wiring? If so, please let me know what **** to get with it all! Thanks a lot!

Das Sprecher Kabel und rca sollen fein sein, versuchen einen Blitz Tons800.2 den sie ziemlich schlechter Esel, remeber, eine Sitte zu erhalten, gemacht sind boxt! Der powercable für iHR A, hängt von der Größe ab, wenn Sie 8 guage jetzt haben, empfehle ich daß das Ändern von zu 4 gauage, bedenkt auch einen Kondensator

any decent 4-500Wrms amp will do them plenty good...using the same wiring.. as long as it's at LEAST 8 gauge (preferably 4).. for amps really you can go with anything reliable.. No Pyramid, Legacy, Profile, or Pyle.. shop online..you can find a good amp at a good price.

Cheers

nice german id, this is how it translated: Speakers the cable and rca should be fine, try lightning Tons800.2 them rather bad donkeys, more remeber, to receive a custom are made box! The powercable for iHR A, depends on the size, if you have 8 guage now, recommends I that a modifying of to 4 gauage, considers also a condenser ...i may IM you later to find what the heck you were trying to say...LOL [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

i was trying to say the rca and speaker cables should be fine, try the lightning audio s800.2, remember to build a custom box! if you have 4 gauge power, it should be fine, but i would recommend to upgrade to 4 gauge if you are running on 8 gauge

oh and i said consider a cap[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG]

8 Guage wire is roughly the same diameter as a pencil.. 4 guage wire is just over 1/2" diameter.. and a L/A S800.2 is a class A/B amp..that's more power than your electrical system can safely take get an s2.500 I had one.. good amp.. puts out slightly over 700Wrms..Should be good.
