Advice.SubChoices
Hi all. Longtime lurker, asking for advice.
I plan to use a PPI PC1800 (1x400@ 4 ohms, 1x800@2 ohms) to drive two 12 inch subs. I will sacrifice 2.0FT3 in space, mounting the amp on the top of the box in the rear of an SUV. This sub system replaces an Audiomobile MASS 2012 in a 1.2 FT3 box driven by the rear two bridged channels of a PC 4800 (400x1@4). If you're interested, this sub is for sale; the MASS 2012 provides great output from relatively small boxes and is very accurate (unfortunately, the company is now out of business). We're looking for a nominal 2 ohm load here, and I've considered the following manufacturers: Elemental Designs Ea's JL Audio W3's/W6's/W7 Kicker L7's IDQ V2's (per Paul Vina) Secondly, (Mark Zarella, your input solicited in this area) would I get stronger output with the subs firing down, or towards the rear. My only other experience with a sub was the system mentioned above installed in a sedan, which provided maximum output with the sub firing rearward and on either side of the trunk. Thanks for your participation. |
