2000 watt amp for one s10l7? hahah...

I had an 800 watt amp pushing an S12L7 and I think that amp was to powerful for it.

that rockford amp will be a waste of space

so where did you get 2000 again?

you had an 800 watt amp pushing an L7 and it was too powerful for it. your box was a

ive had l7s before and they are underated its not to much for it and i plan on getting another one its not like i crank the gain all the way up it just depends on amp on how well it pushes some 800 watt amps only push like 300 watts and the l7 is rated at 1200 and rockford rated at 1500 not much of a diff ima upgrade the big 3 and see if this helps problem

Scroll up and read initial post by creator. He has a 2000 watt amp he wants to use to push 1 10 in sub


Had my L7 in a ported box

if its pushin that much power like you say go getta 13.5 inch JL W7 fuck a kicker L7 10" you'd be wastin your power

dleccord

why w7?

seriously.

Ok, this thread is fun.

First let's start off with basic logic:

1. The P5002 is rated at 500 x 1 @ 4ohm
2. NEVER EVER use any "PEAK" numbers - those might as well be "Hit by lightning" numbers - they just are not accurate and are impossible to base any intelligent convo off of.

Ok, with that out of the way, apparentlty we have a birth sheet stating 2000W of output. I'll tell you why that would basically break the laws of physics....First, that amp has a total of two 20 or 30A fuses on it (I can't tell from the shitty photo on the net and I'm not downloading the manual). Let's give it the benefit of the doubt and go for the 30's - now that's 60A of current.

We all know fuses don't trip like circuit breakers, so let's be even more generous and say she can draw 80A at full tilt.

So, assuming a perfect charging system (14.4 v at the amp) and a perfectly efficient amplifier, this thing COULD make 1152W of power. But amps don't work that way in the real world (and neither do charging systems) so even if we give it a more than excellent 75% efficiency rating, we are looking at around 850W of actual power.

Now, that is being generous. For all intents and purposes, an 800w amp probably won't cause any problems to a HEALTHY charging system (i.e. good grounds, alternator to battery wire, and good alternator/voltage regulator, good battery). Check up on those and make sure that they are in good working order.

i was joking around chill out..and to answer your question because that sub will hit harder and deeper than any other sub its size
