Posted November 16, 201212 yr Herro,My name is James and am currently living in Japan. I'm new on here and am looking forward to purchasing a Dcon 12 in the very near future. It will be going into a Suzuki Alto Works (ported, just need to get final measurements to fit the box behind the so called rear seat). I currently have a Kenwood I-K77 HU and will be using an old school Nakamichi PA301 I have lying around (I actually have 2 lying around). It's rated for 240 watts at 2 ohms. Do you guys think the 12 will be under powered? I was thinking going with dual 10's but already have a 1 cube sealed box for a 12 that isn't being used. I was gonna use that while the sub breaks in and so I can have time to build the new box. Daul 10's sound like fun but I dont think there will be enough room. I'll get a new amp if required. I'm using my old solobaric 10 right now sealed and it's great in the small car but I want more! I listen mainly to metal but occasionally listen to older Beastie Boys, Cypress Hill etc... Thanks for any help or suggestions!
November 16, 201212 yr DCON's don't need much power to get going, so your amp should work just fine. Welcome to SSA from the U.S.A.
November 16, 201212 yr Welcome, that amp will be just fine for the DCON. There is no need to run the full RMS to a sub.
November 16, 201212 yr to the forum!To continue the broken record, that amp will run the DCON very well.
November 16, 201212 yr Author Thanks for the advice and all of the warm welcomes! I'll order the Dcon at the beginning of next month (or if there is a Black Friday deal coming up). I just need to check if SSA will ship to an APO address...
