RE XXX 12"

[WildSebring 0]

Somehow I've ended up with an 07' RE XXX 12" sub.....lol....Couldn't pass the deal up, so I snagged it.

Was just wondering...I've got 2 Sundown Audio 3000D's..If I wire this thing to 4 ohms, let each amp see 2 ohms...that would equal 3200 RMS going to the subwoofer. Can this thing handle that much power day to day? I may end up not running this woofer, I may just keep it for the future....but if I do, I want to know if it can take the power.

I know RE claims 2000 RMS, but if I keep my gains true and do not go full tilt, will it be ok....or am I going to be breaking out the BBQ sauce pretty soon?

Any one have experience with this woofer? I'd appreciate it, if you would give me your summary of it....as I can only find a few reviews on it.

Thanks,

Jeff

Be conservative at first. You could try it on one 3000D, at 1 ohm. If you smell anything funny, stop wanging on it and lower the gain a bit

You can also set the amp for ~2.5k. No need to use the "whole" amp.

Yea, I'm not going to put both 3000D's on it and wire the sub to 1, and let each amp see 0.5 ohm.... I don't think it will handle it.

But would it handle each amp at 2 ohm...for 3200 RMS? If not, I can probably get another XXX and run 1 amp per woofer. I just want a musical sub now, not into SPL as much...Lookin for a ground pounder.

Would 2 XXX's in a wall.....I know theres a lot of variables...but does it have the potential to be a sick ground pounder ?

A vid would be much appreciated though wild... nothing like seeing some 3000D's doing some work
