I have 3 12 Q Power subs at 1500 watts a piece with a 2000 watt proacoustik amp will a 4000 watt pro acoustik amp push the 3 subs better and is Q Power a good brand of sub?

I have 2 q power 1500 watt subs and a 3500 watt proacoustic amp and it pushes it well although not enough so im sure you need more than 2000 watt to push 3 of them.


How big of an amp do you need for two 1200 watt subwoofers?

Depends on what your willing to spend.. For two 1200 watt subs I would go with a 1200 watt amp and run both of then 600 watts ( you don't want to always run subs to full power, because the voice coil might blow or you will light your subs on fire). If your feeling brave you can run a 2000 watt amp 0_o that will annoy your neighbours, but make your car bump!


Is 4000 watt amp too much for two twelves subs?

Not if subs are rated for 2000 watts each.


What size gauge power wire do you need for a 4000 watt amp?

I have 2 12 boss 4000 watt subs with a boss 4000 watt amp. Do i need a capacitor?

Yes because the cap will store the power and give it that extra boost when need be but depending on the type of vehicle you have you might need a bigger battery


Can a 800 watt amplifier push two 1052 watt subwoofers?

Yes the amp can push the 2 subs. I have 2 1250 watt 12inch subs and 1 maybe 400 or 500 watt amp and the amp does fine but if you want more bass at lower levels of volume then you want to have a bigger amp. Just make sure your amp doesnt blow your subs.


What is better two 1000 watt subs or one 2000 watt sub?

This depends on the sub your talking about 1 12" JL sub is better than 4 12" rockford subs


400 watt amp and was wondering what the max wattage of two subs could be hooked up to it?

I recommend Two subs with like 150 watt RMS so you aren't under powering the subs too much. Maybe some 10" JL's or something.


Im worried that i might blow out my 500 watt amp because i have two 12 1000 watt subs and two more 10 subs then four other speakers in my car will i be all right?

no you wont get a 5000 watt amp and u will be fine


Would a 12 volt battery need to use a capacitor to run a 1000 or 760 watt amp?

I have a 760 watt amp powering 2 10" subs and it works fine. my brother has a 1000 watt amp powering 2 12" subs and he got a capacitor. So it really depends on what amp your looking at. if the 760w you wont need one, if the 1000w i would be safe and buy a capacitor. for the 1000w amp you would only need a 1 or 2 farad capacitor.


Can a 200 watt amp power a 250 watt rms sub?

YES! it won't reach it's peak, but that's also probably a good thing, cause it'll be harder to blow your sub. i prefer to buy either the exact watt match for my subs and amp, or buy the next lower watt amp from my subs


Will an 8 gauge wiring kit support 2 12 inch subs and a 500 watt amp?

at least 8 gauge would work depending how long your running the wire. The number of subs does not matter, only the power rating of the amp does. my advise would be to just go ahead and buy a GOOD 4 gauge kit, this will give you more flexibility when you may decide to upgrade your system. don't cheap out with anything it's just a waste of money.
