does 600 watts are good for 2 12 inch subwoofers xplods??

Question

my friend is gonna sell me 2 subwoofers 12 inchs and a 600 watts amp but ii dont know if 600 watts will pick up the subwoofers or the 600 watts aint nothing??

Answer 1

It's impossible to be certain without knowing what model the amps and speakers are, and you shouldn't buy it if you don't have this information and can't research it. Sony makes a 12" sub that's a 4-ohm single voice coil and is rated for about 350 watts. IF that's the subwoofer, and IF the amp is a mono amp that's stable for a 2-ohm load, and IF the 600 watt rating is RMS at 2 ohms, then it should be a good match.

If it's a 2-channel amp, or that's a peak rating, or the subs are a different model with different power ratings, then it might be a different story.

My advice: DO NOT buy until you know more about the equipment and can do some research.

Answer 2

a 600 watt amp will push xplods but it doesnt matter what amp you have on those, they will sound bad either way. go with quality i.e. not anything you can buy at best buy or circuit city

Answer 3

150 per channel The 1300w is peak power handling. They will handle a quick voltage spike but will not hold together at that level for an extended duration. RMS is the normal operating wattage

Answer 4

You didn't mention for how much he wants for it all. If he wants more than $150 for all then don't do it.
Noone here likes Sony. But if you've heard it and like it, and he's gonna give you a deal then, yes.
It's all about what YOU like. If you like it, then by all means buy it.

Good Luck!

Answer 5

watts aren't everything. xplods are sony right? they are HORRIBLE. 250 watt JL subs sound million time better.

Answer 6

yes 600 will. especially if they are in a dual bandpass box.
