need help with a new set of re sx 18's

[speakerfreak]

i was woundering how many watts can you put on a 18'' re sx. its 1000watt rms 2000 peak so i was thinking 1500 a pice for daily. is that good?

[lambofgood91]

yea 1500 should get the job done. Just be careful not to clip em. U should smell em if you're doing something wrong

[ParaNormalAudio]

You have the older model right? Or did you mean new as in the new model?Ive heard the new 1s arent as good as the old models

[speakerfreak]

old ones so thay should be good

[ParaNormalAudio]

oh yeah you will be fine

[iamamp3pimp]

1k imo

[speakerfreak]

what about 2000

[ParaNormalAudio]

2000 rms? or max?

[FLAstrongman]

I'd run 2k rms to each one but that's just how I roll.

[BIG RED]

i have 2 us amps just for those re's

[iamamp3pimp]

bottom line

if you dont know if you can run a speaker over its rated power, then assume that you cant do it.

very good point Robin. If you have to ask, then you should probably play it safe.

[speakerfreak]

well its 1000 rms and 2000 peak so what you think

[speakerfreak]

o and how have you been dave

[WaTTz305]

i say 5krms each tuned at 32hz.

[ParaNormalAudio]

run them at 1000rms and 2000 max per sub there really is no need to run a sub over rated anyway.

This the SX's dont need a lot of power to get loud 1000rms each or even a lil under would be good, but I have heard of them taking 1600rms daily but 1000rms would deff suffice.

MAX rating is garbage, its a "Selling point" number

RMS is all that matters.
