I got a new 12" exile sub...now i need an amp...?
 
I got a brand new XPE12D 12" 4 ohm DVC exile subwoofer 600W RMS - 1200W PEAK Which Amp Would anyone reccommend and/or can anyone tell me the specs of a good amp to go with this sub?

TragicMagic 03-28-2010 07:16 PM

I'd suggest something that does between 600 and 800 watts at 2ohm. You'll wire the voice coils in parallel.

Anything from a reputable brand should suffice.

Thanks buddy I appreciate the quick reply too!

Do you have a budget for the new amp? I have some in stock on sale right now.

TragicMagic 03-28-2010 09:43 PM

CG, I've purchased a subwoofer and front component speakers for my wife's car from MR2NR. I, amongst others, will recommend his expertise.

Good luck.

first off is it a dual 4ohm voice coil or is it the single 4ohm version

Archie 03-29-2010 05:14 PM

I'd suggest anything JBL. I'been running them for awhile now.

Archie 03-29-2010 05:14 PM

Actually, JL Audio as well. those Amps are real power as opposed to the others.

I think it a dual voice coil....

i have a pair of those subs on my 1200 pioneer amp. The dealer at 604autosound said that people where pumping 2-3 times the rated power and they held up no problem.

I understand there are 2 versions, but in his ORIGINAL post it says DVC......that means DUAL VOICE COIL. that means there are 2 voice coils, not SVC which is single. I don't know how much clearer this could get..:dunno:

cg1987 03-29-2010 11:27 PM

YEah KYGREEN thats where i picked them up, 100$ at future shop, Now trying to get a good deal on a amp...

cg1987 03-30-2010 12:31 AM

How much power should the amp have to power the one 12"?
ANy certain specs?

MR2NR 03-30-2010 08:44 AM

Budget for amp is? Are you after a Kwality amp or a Quality amp?

cg1987 03-30-2010 09:43 AM

Probably looking for the most bang for my buck, Can the amp power bother SVC and DVC Subs
