Want this question answered?
1200 Watt wiring is more than enough for an 800 Watt amp. The rating of the sub doesn't make any difference to the cables. If you want to use the sub to its rated power you should get a bigger amp. If the amp can only give out 800 Watts and the sub can take 1100 Watts then you can put a bigger amp on. It is still going to be loud as with an 800 Watt amp. I have a 300 watt amp with a 1200 Watt sub and people hear me coming.
800 watt should be fine
yes it can
It depends on the rms of the two cvrs combined. Also if the 1200 watt amp is 1200 watt rated (rms) or 1200 watt peak. Lets say the two kickers have an rms of 600 watt each, and the amp is 1200 watt rms, which it probably isnt but i'll pretend. This set up would work because 600 of the amps watts would be correctly matched with one sub, and the other 600 would go to the other sub.
you just need one, a general rule of thumb is that the wattage on your amp should be double the wattegae on your sub, hence if you have a 1200 watt sub you'll need a 2400 watt amp
do amps get pushed? Normally a 1200 watt amp would need driving with less than 12 watts of audio.
Yes!!!!! Do not try it unless you want to get to very hurt!!!!!!!!
It's actually a good idea to have a speaker that can handle higher wattage than the amp can produce.
The best way to hook up a single 12 inch dvc to a 1200 watt amp is to use an MTX thunder box.
Would be compared to 1200 watt amp
crutchfield has a wiring diagram for all kinds of configurations, check it out.
Depends on what your willing to spend.. For two 1200 watt subs I would go with a 1200 watt amp and run both of then 600 watts ( you don't want to always run subs to full power, because the voice coil might blow or you will light your subs on fire). If your feeling brave you can run a 2000 watt amp 0_o that will annoy your neighbours, but make your car bump!
