To those of you w/ Infinity Perfects:

What amps are you pushing them with? I have 2-12" Perfect DVCs and I have been pushing them with a bit less power than they want. I bought the amps used a long time ago w/ my last system and finally they're starting to go out. I want to get one amp that will push both of these subs. I guess I am looking for one w/ >=1000 RMS

I want to kno what y'all are using and what you think about them... I need to start figuring this out soon because I don't think my current amps will make it till November.

Don't know if this helps, but Im running 1 Infinity 12.1, SVC, on a Rockford Power 250.2, bridged 250RMS. Sounds a bit... underwhelming

I'm running a single infinty kappa perfect 12.1 off of a Kenwood KAC 929 amp bridged somewhere around 460 watts Rms.

I've had the cone seperate from the webbing twice, (got replacements from futureshop) i don't know if this is just me getting faulty subs or what.

I want to run 2 perfects in parrellel at about 600 watts RMS, anyone out there seen this working? without blowing the subs?

stillmatik23 are you using one Amp to run both of your subs or two Amps?

What wiring setup is everyone using with the JBL1200.1 are you running the subs in parrallel?

Do you have single or double voice coil?

I'm trying to figure out how to run my two SVC infiniities off the JBL Amps.....(1 of the JBL 600.1 pushing 600 watts at 2 ohms into the subs wired in parrallel or should I use the JBL1200.1 wired.......How?)

Any help would be appreciated...

Yikes!! they tend to blow up!?! WTF?

i think ill get that JBL 1200.1 for mine anyway... The amps that run my perfects now leave the subs starving for more juice.

Do you have your's set up like this? I have DVCs and Infinity's website shows this pic


this should be 1 ohm... the amp can deal w/ that, right?

According to the JBL owners manual (off the website) the 600.1 and 1200.1 are both 1 ohm stable.........
