^^ is that a good amp to power my 2 10" MTX 6000's?

 

depends if your subs are dvc or svc. mtx 6000s run 250w rms each so the 4250d would run 2 svc at 2 ohm mono and dvc would run 1ohm or 4ohm. the mtx amps only run 2ohm or up so a 2ch amp with good 4ohm power would be better. [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

 

So basically, tell us the impedence of the subs and the # of voice coils and we'll tell you if it will work well or not.

 

Single 4ohm

 

Yes it will work.
It will do 250rms@2ohm 12.5v or 350rms@2ohm 14.4v.

I would consider this amp from the For Sale section here. A better match for the subs and a good seller. [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

but that wont be giving me each sub 250 watts will it?

 

350w/2 = 175w each
you don't need to have exactly the power that is printed on the back of the subwoofer. The MTX 250D will be fine and be plenty of power.

 

well i lost the bid but thanks anyways guys...buy the way, that store that was selling that amp, are they reliable? i meant they have good feedback and cheap prices.

 

Also since what i have now is the Kenwood KAC-729s 600watt...how much power is each of my mtx's gettin? would i make a noticable difference if i ran that kenwood amp compared to that mtx amp?

 

Kenwood usually over-rates their products to make them more appealing to buyers. I don't think any real-world comparison has been done, but IMO, 1 MTX watt (RMS @14v) would probably equal 0.75 RMS Kenwood watts. MTX is much more conservative with their power ratings. Its hard to say exactly how much power your subs are really seeing, but considering your subs can handle 250 RMS each, the 600 watt kenwood will probably not hurt the subs, or exceed their power ratings. Again, it depends on how they are wired (bridged, stereo etc). Another thing to keep in mind is that companies like Kenwood often advertise the amplifier’s peak power (often double the RMS power rating).
