More watts won't help if the other stuff is overlooked (bad box etc). Google 'subwoofer efficiency vs power handling'. 1250W won't blow up a 1000W woofer, turn it down if you hear distortion, it's that simple. Some speakers that are rated to handle 1000W, people are putting 3000W on them and it takes it just fine. Some woofers are highly underrated, others highly overrated.

It was in my old thread , he didnt say it blow them up but it will be too much power to damage them look at this thread http://www.canadiancaraudio.com/onli...u-quickly.html

i had 1000rms on a kicker CVR(rated at 400rms) and it loved it haha lasted a few months then i sold it and the owner says it still works great

So How big should a Dual Ported box be for 2 Premier subs and how many hertz is good to get great lows and highs ? Btw how much will it cost ? Dimensions too ? Because u all have said it all depends on the box

Post the model number for the subs that you have and we can look up the specs and box recommendations. As far as overpowering a sub goes I personally like to run an amp close to double the subs RMS rating of the sub, but there are correct and incorrect ways of doing this. Headroom can be a very good thing.

I did say it was a little too much power for the SUB not subs, due to the fact i have ran these subs before and they are overrated. And i also said i have had 3500 watts to 1 12 premier before and it was fine it is all in your dialing. When someone asks if a 1000 watt sub can handle 1500 watts i automatically say no because many people do not know how to properly dial in their amps.

Pioneer does not Over-rate their products i have been using them for sometime and they do really get serious loud ... i used to have Premier SPL series but some guy made a good offer for the two so sold it to him biggest mistake done by me lol .... But the new premier is made the same but built in compression quality , i do believe they produce 1000 RMS .

LOWTONEZ 07-13-2008 08:47 PM

Im telling you if you put 2000 rms on them in a box even bigger then 3 cubes their toast. And if you know so much about the subs, why in the hell are you asking for advice on them? Their subs are all over rated other then the TS-W5102spl and 8102spl, i didnt say they were garbage, just that their loudspeakers are overrated.

And Crunch subs arent over-rated , Crunch subs say 600RMS when there 300RMS for a person who has crunch subs u shouldnt be bad mouthing Premiers
