Posted November 5, 200816 yr I have an AQHDC315 d1. wired to a AQ 1200.1 at 0.5 ohms. I am thinking about getting a second 1200.1 and bridging them. The question is will making this upgrade be significantly louder to the ear. I know its hard to say because it always depends on box, setup, installation, etc. but I am just trying to get an idea.
November 5, 200816 yr The question is will making this upgrade be significantly louder to the ear.Significantly? No.
November 6, 200816 yr None at all, why would you want to run way more power than your sub is rated for?
November 6, 200816 yr DJ at audioque has told me that the ahdc3's can take about 2000 daily.You agreed to follow these terms, please do so. Daily has no logical meaning.http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/i...showtopic=22849http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/i...showtopic=13994Either way my recommendation stands. It would be a waste of money.
November 6, 200816 yr strapped at .5 ohm i dont think the amps will handle .25ohm daily. you could rewire to 2 ohm and get about the same power now just be a little easier on you electrical and the amps.
November 6, 200816 yr Author yeah, I was planning on running them at 2 ohms. Right now it seems like I have to push it into a clip to reach full output. I don't do this but it just seems that the sub could take alot more.
November 6, 200816 yr I don't do this but it just seems that the sub could take alot more.It may, but if all you're doing is pushing the driver further into power compression without actually giving a noticeable difference, why bother? Ideally, you'd see a 3dB gain, and anyone who's competed in SPL will tell you that in real life the actual gain is much less. Your ears aren't that sensitive.
