That sub is 300w RMS and you'll be lucky to get 120w RMS from that amp in bridged mode.:(

You need ro put a least 350w RMS through that sub to run it comfortably.

BTW MAX power figures mean nothing.;)


Your 6x9s will be around 80-100w RMS.

so tell me again wat u have.

6x9, sub, 1 amp or 2? and wat front speakers?

And what exactly is the problem?? not enuff bass from sub? Too much bass from 6x9? What hu do u have?


Rocky

posted on 7th Dec 04 at 21:37

rite dude well the amp is connected to the sub so i wud assume its powering the sub!!!


AdiSRI

posted on 7th Dec 04 at 21:35

wat do u mean most of the sound???

really u want the amp powering the front speakers not the 6x9's and just set the amp gains correctly for the input voltage supplied by your hu.
If anything id have rid of the 6x9 in favor of a good set of front speakers.

I got 6x9 in my car which are 300w each like anyways i had a Pioneer amp, 2 x 50w RMS or 1 x 200 max amp fitted and a 12'' sub pioneer 600w this connected too a kenwood z838w ;)

anyways guys most of the sound is going through to the 6x9s and want to transfer most of the sound to the sub how do i do this by turning the amp up more so more sound goes into the sub or shall i do any adjusting on my headunit!!!


help appreciated :look:
