Rightio,

i want two 10" RE subs, in ported enclosures.
need them to be Dual2ohm to put 2ohm load on amp when wired correctly.
The only subs they do smaller than this are dual4ohm, so they're no good...

They are offering me SX10 (dual2ohm)at £240 each...
did the math, n they're perfect for ported enclosures

But what i need to know, is it worth having such powerfull subs with my amp?
these subs are Dual 2ohm 1000wrms.
my amps only 1100wrms x 1 @2ohm.

does this mean (provided i run them in properly ) they wont ever pop?

i dunno what to do, cause i cant get any smaller ones at dual2ohm, n they wont seem to do custom for me.

What do i do...

aye it will do the job nicely mate but remember you'll be atleast 900wRMS down - so like adi said, wacking the volume up they will just start to distort/clip and also the amp will get fairly hot mate (make sure you have decent supply of air getting to it eitherway)....

personally i would just get one and power it propperly, or get another amp and power two properly - but obviously it gets pricey etc
