Posted February 1, 200817 yr How much *continuous* power have you sent your MJ-18 and had it survive?Thanks,Mark
February 1, 200817 yr Admin The most I have been able to send it at 8ohms, is approx 500-600. Nothing serious, could easily take more. How much? Not sure yet.
February 1, 200817 yr Whatever an Earthquake Shredder PH-D3 puts out @ 2ohms to a pair of MJ18 4ohm versions, from a stock electrical system, 2 runs of 1/0g wire to a regular 650cca battery and 80a alternator.After 20-30 minutes of hard pounding, I could smell the voice coils in the front of the wagon, but they kept on ticking like clockwork after HANDFULS of such (ab)use.
February 1, 200817 yr I use a Massive P3000.1 on my 4 and they handle it no problem. The only thing I notice is cause I the 2 batts I have in the back are dieing the amps clips a little and they get a little stinky.
February 2, 200817 yr mine are still going just fine with the 4000.1 on them dno how much actual power they are constantly getting though
February 8, 200817 yr Oh wait I just rememberedWe hit my friends 2x 4ohm MJ-18's with a Yorkville PA amp that pushed over 1200 watts RMS to each sub, but that was in a 1.8cf sealed box with fibreglass wall insulation for stuffing. They handled it very well.
