I have 2 memphis sr's subs that are 12s running off a 500WATT memphis amp... will this make it hit harder then what theyare?Iknownuttinaboutsoundsetup

It will make it hit a bit harder - I have it powering two pioneer 10s and they do have a decent punch in bridged mode, however if you want a real kick with 12s I would go with at least 900-1000 watts

Well I use this amp for my highs and they sound proper... My one 13.5 in JL runs on a JL amp... I would suggest one of those for your subs...

I had it hooked up to a pa speaker with 2 15s and 4 tweeters raited at 250watts and it sounded great and got pretty loud. For your sub I do believe it would work. I did, however, end up sending it back. There were issues with the phono input where the signal wouldn't come through and the mic input dial seemed to have difficulty when increasing the volume. It did not increase gradually but rather reached a point where it seemed to just jump to 100%. Also, on the package I received it said defective, which maybe should have been a warning. So if you do get one check out all of the functions before the return date is up.

Well.they hit hard...maybe lil more...with the right equipment, just dont over power it...then it will over heat...and then your left with a blown sub....rms watts are great for price and give more than solo...think they r around maybe 700 to 1000 rms...never give max watts to sub or subs

Let me add one other thing. Kicker under rates there amps. You will get a bench test card with yours. It will tell you the real power of the amp. Mine is a 1500w, but benched at 1723w. To much power can cause distortion and blow your speakers even if you keep it turned down. Too little and you get bad sound and overdrive your amp. If your subs are rated at 750w @ 2 Ohms and you have two then 1500w is what you want. So keep that in mind. Also remember you want your amp to always do the work for you. So keep the base on your head unit at 0. Then mess around with the EQ on the head unit and the frequency on the amp. Gain can be your enemy if you have really good pre-amps. So you shouldn't have to turn it up a lot. My recommendation if your not experienced is once everything is installed take it to a place that does it all the time and have them fine tune it.

I am planing on buying 2 of these subs this week & I have a Hifonics Brutus 1000 watt stable @ 1 Ohm amp ....to push these babies , am I going to run into problems ???

I don't think I would run two of that sub because it is a 4 ohm sub. That would restrict your watts from the amp to about 300 watts output. If they were 2 ohm subs it would probably be fine. I am running one kicker 12" sub ported and it is a 2 ohm sub so I am getting 500 watt output.

You need to know how many watts you will be pushing per channel and the resistance (ohms). Are you running at 4 ohms per channel? If so, that will fry these puppies. But, it shouldn't damage your amp, so you can always try it if you have the cash to spare. If I were you, I would contact the manufacturer.

These subs can take a beating no matter what amp you put on it. They can really take some heat. Enjoy cause them subs knock.

I would say no, this is pretty weak. I have one 15 or 17 inch sub and this doesnt compare to the previous one that I blew out. I'm not very knowlegable on other amps but because I have this one, I would say try to inquire about another one. lol

Size of the sub doesn't matter what matters is the rms rattings of the sub don't ever listen to the MAX WATTAGE or any term similar to that. Always look for the RMS ratting of the sub. Then compare that with the amp. I have these subs wired to two ohms with a Rockford p300-1 amp and they sound amazing. I believe the 12 in are still 150RMS so the 300 amp if it's RMS not max will do just as well.

It could. The max watts is 1000 and 500 regular. I have mine running a kicker comp 12. Almost too much power for it but it pushes hard. You should be good for two 12s though but personally I'd go with something that pushes it to the max wattage of the subs

I have two 12 inch subs rated for 2000 watts each and have to keep my bass setting fairly low so I don't think your speakers would handle it.

Ok, so the sub is 500W RMS and 4 ohms. That means that your amp will be sending it 350W. You will have 300W going to each of the "200W" 8's and 350W going to the sub. It should be fine unless you are over-driving the 8's - on music, there shouldn't be a problem.

The Sub has a 450w max and 200w rms. You may have trouble with your sattalites. The sub has a really nice response. Takes alittle time to break in. also depends on where you put it, needs some room to breath...But you should be fine. Nice sounding..

I would add another if your pulling 1400rms . That sub is only rated 1300 rms . Even though it's only 100 rms over what the subs is rated at , long term overpowering can damage subs . Hope this helped some :)

No. I've got two 6\9s along with this package and a 1500 watt sony explode amp pushing the subs and it thumps!!!
