First of i will like to tell you guys im new to car audio. And i would like to know if this amp----> http://www.cardomain.com/item/JBLGTO6011II is good for two of the subs-----> http://www.cardomain.com/item/PIOTSSW3041D. And if this amp--> http://www.cardomain.com/item/JBLCS604 is good for 4 of these ---> http://www.cardomain.com/item/PIOTSD681R which are already installed in the truck. thx in advance

 

The subs are not my preference, but everyone is diff. I'd spend the money and go with a better amplifier though. The subs are 350 RMS, so find a amp that will produce atleast 250RMS (TRUE) The JBL isn't going to put out the wattage that it states. Try to google and get the bench tests from it. You will see the diff. I have always been told a good amplifier will cost you approx. $1.00 per watt and it will be TRUE WATTAGE and poss. under rated. Look at the JL Audio, Kicker, Hi-Fonics, and other big name amplifiers out there winning comps. They are more money, but produce TRUE power. The JBL is listed as 580 Watts @ 2ohms, but prob. only will produce 50% of that power which will be under powering your subs a lot. For the price of that amplifier, you can get yourself a very nice Kicker Amp and get more power and actually LESS money. Check out these Kicker Amplifiers. These are TRUE wattage also.

KICKER KX450.2 (Approx. $150)
(BEST IMO) KICKER KX600.1 (Around $150-$200)

Check them out and let me know if you need ne thing else.

 

I am afraid I am going to have to disagree with JT on this one. JBL makes a fine amp. Great bang for the buck. I think both of those amps would work well. 265 watts to a sub is plenty for a lot of people. I think it would make for a nice little upgrade.

 

ok thx for the help, so the jbl multy channel amp is good then? An about the subs wich amp would be the best, the one that will be able to use the full power of the subs. The KICKER KX600.1 looks pretty good will it be enough to use the full potential of the subs. And Can you recomend me a good wiring kit for the amps.

 

Deconder may have more info on the JBl. I personally have never heard one powering ne thing, just what I read. As far as wiring kit, I usually just buy my own 4Ga. Wire for Power/Ground, 12Ga. Remote Wire, 8Ga. Speaker Wire.
I do have an inline 150Amp Fuse, but got it from Sound Citation here locally.

Your kit all depends on your power.

 

thx man i apreciate your help, and about the KICKER KX600.1, you say its good enough to power both subs right? What if i would to get three of those pioneere subs, because my friend is selling me three of em for $150. What would be needed to power em?

 

ok i bought the thre subs, Now im wanting to know if the KICKER KX600.1 is enough to power them or i need a diffrent amp.

 

The Kicker is a good match power wise...

 

so can i use it in 1.33ohm load, and whats a good amp that will bring out the full potential of the subs.

 

JBL amps are good amps. I've got 3 and they all work great. 2 GTO and a power. I think JT listed the ones I wouldn't go with. Course I've never been a kicker fan in the least.

 

You bought 3 of those shallow pioneers? 350w x3 = 1050 so you'll probably want more like a 1000-1200w amp that can handle a 1 ohm load depending how you wire it. Check this site out it has a excellent explanation on wiring speakers to get different ohm ratings.

well i am thinking of wireing in parallel, so would this be a good amp--> http://www.cardomain.com/item/POWA1800DB or can you recomend a better one thats not so expensive.

 

I have heard good things about hifonics. Look at this one:

http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAu...roductID=14803

and far as wiring kits go www.knukonceptz.com or stinger products off ebay. Running that much power your going to want to run some 0 gauge wire from the battery to a 0-4 distro block.

 

Is that a good site for buying stuff, and what about this wiring kit http://cgi.ebay.com/STINGER-PRO-4-GA...QQcmdZViewItem it says its good for up to 1400 watts but its only 4 Ga not 1/0. What about fuse recomendations?
