Well Guys, it comes down to this, I have to make a decision shortly regarding the new subs i'm gonna get for my focus...
Right now i have 3x Rockford fosgate Punch HE2 12"s running off of a BD500.1 amp.. dreadfully underpowered, I know
But here's my dilemma, eventually when my big amp gets repaired...
Viper D2500.1 The rockfords wont be able to take the wattage they produce.
Viper 2700w@ 2ohms RMS. vs. Subs... 400rms a piece = 1200w rms ohm load = (2.6667)
So i have to make a decision.
I cant decide wether i want to go with 2x 12"s 3x 12"s or 2 15"s
If i go with the 2 12's my Options are Alpine Type X, or Rockford Power T2's
other options are
for the 3x 12's i'd go with 3 alpine Type X's or 3 Rockford Power T1's
Next up would be... if i were to go with 2x15's
Options would be
2x Rockford T2's, or Orion H2's
I'd be willing to go with an internet brand sub... Such as Resonant engineering, or Adire. But theyre pretty expensive for what they are. plus i can get all the above subs in canada.
Power Handling on the woofers
Rockford T1 12" - 600w RMS
Rockford T2 12" - 1000w RMS
Alpine Type X 12" - 1000w RMS
Orion H2 15" - 2000w RMS
Rockford T2 15" - 1000w RMS
I'd rather stay away from the T2's because theyre a pretty expensive option but if nessecary i'd go with them.
So help me make my decision.
