Subwoofer Question

[Reliant]

I have an Infinity Kappa 12.1 that I just purchased.
I am wondering how much bass I will get if I run 600 watts to it.
Anyone know?
Anyone with personal experience?

trying to make the car alarms in the whole neighborhood go off?

heh...you're asking how much bass you will get with 600 watts? do you really have to ask?

Peak performance means nothing, speak RMS.

We talkin cars or home theaters? I assume cars, but I have 2 x Velodyne HGS12 subwoofers in my theater. 1250w constant, 3000w peak.

pretty much more than you'll ever need w/ only one sub... however, if im not mistaken, the kappa 12.1 is part of the infinity perfect model and can handle up to like 1500 watts.... or something like that.... but 600 will push it nicely...

thats a nice damn sub.. how much and where did you get it from??

The HGS12 is nothing compared to the levels that can be reproduced by an HGS18.

HGS12 @ Listen Up!

I got the sub on Ebay for $150 + Shipping.
It can handle 1400 peak.
I will run 600 watts to it and the RMS will be somewhere around 350 watts.
From what you guys are saying it sounds as if 600 watts will push it nicely.
I can't wait to get this hooked up!
