What do i hook my amp to so i can use accessory on a 2004 dodge Dakota quad cab?
If you do have only one amp and the max power is 150w RMS, a small 100 x 2 ch w RMS connected in bridged mode, will give you about 200 w RMS more than your sub needs which should be enough. So there's no need to buy an expensive amp, with that your car will be BOOM BOOM!i would get a 400 watt amp not unless you want to go deaf
Is Total harmonic distortion rating on a car amplifier important when using subwoofers?
Are you asking what size amp you need to power a 12" sub woofer that can handle 150watts rms? First of all, rms means constant power. The amount of power that an amp can provide at a constant rate. Cheap amps are usually over rated, meaning that it says that it is pushing 150watts rms, but is really not. Always buy an amp that exceeds the amount that you need so that you don't burn it up by having to turn up the level controls past half way, or you will be taking a chance on burning it up or damaging your amp, and of course blowing the sub woofer. It gets much deeper than this. I will be happy to explain in further detail if you would like to e-mail me. My e-mail address is tchmn4u6@msn.com. I can get into further detail w/ you then. There is a lot more that you need to know about this matter. I hope to hear from you, this is my hobby.Why does my one channel amp have two channels?
you go by the rms of the sub. its the amount of constant power it can handle. the max is just the spikes of high power it can handle. go with a mono amp and if you have 1 sub you want 150rms, 2 300rms, so on. you also want to pay attention to the ohm of your amp. if you have 2 8ohm subs you can wire them to a 4ohm, 2 4ohm can wire to a 2ohm, the ohm also affects the amp since an amp with a 100rms @4ohm may have an rms of 200 @ 2ohm, wiring the load down you can get away with a lower priced amp.I need 10 Cool Techno Tracks to play in Car, if u Have More then 10 then put it all ;)?
The RMS rating is the watt rating you want to go by. The MAX/PEAK ratings are really just BS. The manufacturer thinks people are more inclined to by their product if they have a high MAX rating. Most people are!Whats a really good in dash dvd wma compatible for under 600$?
You should select an amp that is in your price range, and puts out 50-200 watts RMS. Make sure the amp is CEA 2006 compliant so you get the power output that is claimed.
