well i got a 10 inch type r sub and a kenwood amp from best buy (where i work = discount) and installed them today...but while i was installing i figured out that i had made a bad choice on the amp and the idiots at best buy had misled me
the type r takes 500 w rms and is a dual voice coil 4 ohm sub, so i bought a kenwood mono amp that puts out 500 w rms in a 4 ohm setup...
well while checking out the sub today i realize i can only set it up in 8 ohms or 2 ohms and not 4...lets just say i was pissed so i just set it up in 8 ohms to test the sound...
well the sub sounds good when i have bass boost turned all the way up, but it pisses me off that i cant give the sub the 500 w that it can handle
here are my options:
1: keep my 8 ohm setup with the kenwood amp
2: return the kenwood and get a v 12 alpine amp which puts out 500 w at 2 ohms
3: return thekenwood and buy a hiphonics amp from my friend which he claims is good, but i know nothing about the brand
any advice/help about if hiphonics (sp?) is good would be greatly appreciated
thank you
