RLp question

Recommended Posts

Would 2 vipers to 2 RLps 15's be to much? What type of amp should i get for around that price range.300-400 dollers if not less to power 2 Rlps 15's it has to make the power at .5 or 2 ohm.

Arent your Rl-p's D4's? If so then you need the amp to give power at 2ohm series, or 4 or 1, if wiring the woofers together.

Parallel, parrallel = 1ohm load

Series, Parallel = 4ohm load

This is unless you have 2 d2's

The wiring configs hes looking at could be acheived with dual1's or dual2's. Did they make a run of 15's that was dual2's???

maybe your right...i don't know. the first half says to vipers...

but the second half "suggests" only 1 amp.....

Im sorry yes...... they are Dual 2 Which is why im asking. Since theres no way to power both with 1....... effiecently i was thinking about just getting another viper....... would 1200 to each be to mcuh...... sealed?

how big sealed? around 2 ft per? that'd be pretty nice...if you don't go crazy w/ it :hyper:

I can make mine move with 500 watts. After playing with it for a while longer now I really wouldnt put much more than a 1000watts to each one. Im not saying you cant, but I dont see where they will go to much more crazy over 1000watts unless you burping them. I say this generously too because I really dont see where they would need more than 750ish, especially daily.

agreed. i've got 750ish going to my 12" rl-p and it loves it. while the rl-p can handle more, i've ran as much as 2500 on mine and it in no way liked that, (though it didn't mind 1200 in a ported box, but i took care with my settings as well) they just don't need 1200 to get going...

the optimal power level for an rl-p,IMO, is in the 750-1000 wrms range. with somewhere around 1200 being the absolute most for daily and 350-400 being the least i'd use.

so if u go witha pair of vipers on a pair of rl-p's sealed, if u set them up properly, u should have no problems. and jelly's 2ft^3 recommendation should fit the bill nicely.

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :slayer:
