Is the Rockford prime 1200 too much for this speaker

It depends on your settings. I personally wouldn't run that much power to a single speaker of this class. I bought a T500-1bdCP which is rated at 500, but the birth sheet says 811. I burned one up. The installer didn't set the crossover settings on the amp and had the gain too high. After setting the amp correctly I've replaced the speaker and haven't had any trouble since.I do have the same box and subs, but with two speakers in my suv which can handle that load much better.

No. I'm running a 700 mono block and it's not even turned up all the way. It's super loud. It's a great speaker. The box is nice. I want to run max but don't wanna buy a new amp.

It can handle around 650rms so 1200watt rms amp would still work just don't turn it up all the way and also make sure the ohms match up as well this thing kicks let me tell you

No. This speaker runs at 600 rms and 1200 is the max output of the amp. You always want to have more watts than the dm's of a speaker. You can always adjust the gain.

Probably, yes. Polk's R series are garbage, that's why they are so cheap. Their next model line up, the Monitor series, can often be had at deep discounts from newegg. The Monitor series have a full 1" tweeter, as opposed to the Primus's 3/4" tweeter. Or get the Primus 152 and spend $100-200 on a decent subwoofer if needed for home theater.

Keep in mind you are comparing a $200 speaker to a $60 speaker, but given that I think the Amazon speaker holds its own. I wouldn't pay the premium for the Bose. Unless you just hate your money.

was wandering the same thing but i did some research and its a active speaker with 625RMS/900WATT Max...Im 80% sure that this information is true but will keep looking cuz i was looking to get one too....also if you wanted to know the SPL output is 132 DB

I got the 650 on Monday and the speaker sound is very good. I was impressed with how the sound seemed to surround you. I have since hooked it up to my home stereo but I don't think you'll be disappointed with the built in speakers.

I have played with a pair of these for 300 ppl every 1 said it was loud enough and that was at 70% volume. But as all pa speakers that are all in 1 for a crowed that size U'll want a separate subwoofer with its own built in amp for the lowes. U can always power wall ur speaker look up the terms on google it will show you speaker placement. I truly enjoy these behringer's as I am buying more they are truly worth the buck. Enjoy they are a good buy.

I have two of the VE-12's in a room that is 18' x 26' and they are very loud. My entire house shakes from them actually. Its not so much the size of the speaker as much as it is power. My amp is 250 rms per channel. The 15" model will merely give you slightly lower bass response. 12's are the perfect balance in my opinion, I had 15's in the room previously and these give much better all around sound.

Yeah, i have a 500 but only run it at 250 because if i turn it up any higher it drones out all the mid and treble in my pickup. 300 watts it pleanty for this sub, cant go wrong with JL Audio!

With the brx 1600 u gonna put out bout 700 watts at 2ohm. Whats ur speaker rated for Mrs and peak power

I'm no pro; but, I thought the DT 8080BP's were about as you as you could hope for in that price range. I have a pair of 20 year old super towers from DT; and, I recently bought their most expensive super towers for about $2,000 a speaker. I'm a big DT fan.

This amp will run it easy...yes....I'm pushing eight speakers total....two tens bridged...two six by nines....two.6.5s....and tweeters...the rms is operating watts...that 1300 is peak and not to be ran at that wattage. Bridging makes less resistance. My advice...Google and get a good understanding of how to bridge....and do it all before you blow your new amp. For the money..Hell yes the rockford.

Are you asking if the Rockford works better than the Kenwood? I have never owned a Kenwood product so therefore I cannot comment on the Kenwood, although i do love my rockord sub and that amp handles it well. If youre were using the sony amp with the Kenwood i believe you had an under powered amp for that woofer. I always like to have a bigger amp power output than what the speaker is rated for. A speaker can not be under powered or extremely over powered or it will fail.

I have the r 1200 fosgate prime amp with a 140 amp circuit breaker with knukoncepts 4 gauge power and ground 12 gauge speaker wire. The hifonics amp is to much power for that sub.

Now that I've had this speaker for several months, I can say that it is marginal as a subwoofer. It really depends on the equalization of the music you are playing. It has problems in the 200-800 Hz range. I try to keep those frequencies down as much as I can. I used to own a sound and lighting company so I am very picky about how things sound. There are a lot better subwoofers out there but will cost you more money. I will eventually replace this with a separate power amp and subwoofer that is stronger in the low-mid frequencies.

At $125.00 a pair you should be happy with the sound quality of this model.These speakers can and do work better with higher wattage-especially if you want to get the bass out of them.If you're going to be playing them at low volume levels you'll be dissapointed in the bass unless you have a 'loudness' button that can be kicked on for low volume listening-or high volume listening.Most vintage amps/receivers that I've owned do have a loudness button feature.I also miss the built in 3-way tone control offered on vintage amps. Mid-range has been removed from most all newer-digital amps/receivers. And I see no reason why for this engineering decision. A.A.Stone, Jax. FL.

1200 for 2@ 350 watts ea on one channel or 2, and is this going to be as I call it "Thumpin" as in low bass sound only or are they involved with other speakers if not, then if your going to run ea speaker on it own channel you should have more than enough, just adjust the levels so that you don't over drive them. They should sound fine. Also are your 10" speakers KFC-W2513PS, and not kfc-w2153p, again either way you should have enough to push them speakers to the beat.
