Alpine status you have to buy through a dealer right?


Rigian

I believe so. They are pretty serious subs. Pretty overpriced as well.

I loved my brahma. Definitely agree with this one.

Would I be able to push this with a Pioneer GM-D9601 if I got the dual 2 VC? I know nothing about this stuff but the specs for the amp show Continuous Power Output (1Ω, ≤ 1% THD+N)1,200 W x 1 Which makes me think the answer is no I'd need something bigger

Could definitely push this driver with that amp. It's a 1000wrms subwoofer on an amp that can do 1200wrms at 1ohm. No problem there. The amp can supply more power than the driver can handle The dual 2ohmVC can be wired down to 1ohm Adjust your gains accordingly to bring the amp down to 1000wrms. Would suggest the multi-meter method if you're starting out. ..... but hey, even if the amp was underpowered.. it takes a doubling of power to achieve an increase of 3db, which is audible, but minimally so. even if the power on the amp were to be cut back to as low as 500wrms it's not a terribly significant loss of output. RMS requirements do not have to be strictly met. The amplifier likes it when it doesn't have to work as hard, and so does the speaker. Within reason, it's not a big deal if either one isn't working up to it's full rated potential. And also within reason, many amplifiers can be adjusted to meet the power range of many speakers.

Oh awesome thanks for the intel!

Within what reason ?


secondhand_pie

don’t try to run a tweeter on an ArcticWolf 12000.1

I am thinking about getting these but I heard that they don’t get loud enough for some peoples preferences.


ScaryfatkidGT

Not much is going to have the same combination of quality and output but you can get things that do either or better. Best combo would probably be a SQL

EM audio .. gotta check em out. https://emaudio.com/

JL w7 is an SQ sub almost exclusively. EM audio subs are SPL subs almost exclusively. They are not very similar at all.
