Will JL monoblock power 2 subs?
I plan to put a system in my car, and i was wondering whether the JL Audio MONOBLOCK E1200 amplifier will be able to power my 2 JL audio subs, i don't know the models but i think they're W3v2 and i don't know how much watts they're pushing.
okay cool, i'd thought so too because they're just 10 inch, and pretty old models, i'd not think they be running that much wattage but just to be sure the specs of the AMP: 120 W RMS x 1 @ 4 ohm (12.5V);
200 W RMS x 1 @ 2 ohm (12.5V)
200 W RMS x 1 @ 2 ohm (12.5V)
As long as the 2 subs are 100W continuous, [RMS] 4 ohm VCs it will work no problem, wire in parallel for a 2 ohm load and your good to go, if however they are more then 100W subs, or they can't be wired for a 2 ohm load, [2 or 8 ohm VCs or DVC 4 ohm] then you will be under-powered, and although that will still work, you will have to be careful not to over-drive the amp, [into constant clipping] as that will damage the VCs.
