Hey I just recieved my subs in the mail the other day, and I don't know exaclty how to pick an amp for theses, how does ohms work? for when i'm picking out an amp? they have 1200wats rms and 2400 max each and their duel 4 ohms.

 

your gonna want a 1 ohm stable amp thats 2500 plus rms to run those subs at 1 ohm

 

Assuming you have a pair of these......

With 4 x 4ohm voice coils, you have 2 realistic wiring options: 1ohm or 4ohm.

For shoping purposes:
....look for either a big-*** bridgeable 2 channel and run 4ohm mono ...OR... a 1ohm stable monoblock, to of course run, 1ohm load on. That's it in a nutshell.

1ohm = all (4) 4ohm VC's in parallel.
4ohm = 2 pairs of series wired VC's (=8ohms each driver), then wired in parallel (8ohm + 8ohm = 4ohms final).

 

So I kinda understand I guess, so would that make this amp fitting?

Perfect....almost as if they had your subs in mind .....lol

 

would be fine yes

 

Alrighty, thanks fer the help.

Does anyone have any bad experience with planet audio? lol

also, a max of 3000 watts isnt too much fer the subs, their max is 2400. O_o

 

Alright, so I now got everything i need, im building my box today and hopefully putting it all in.

I got 1 3000x1 planet audio monoblock amp rms 2400 max 3000
also, 2 DVC planet audio 4ohms subs 2400 max 1200 rms, Now all I really need to know is how to wire these subs to get the most out of my amp.

 

Wire the coils on each driver in parallel, then parallel the drivers on the amp.

Also please forget the "max" ratings, they mean nothing....

HTH
