[QUOTE="TheSubMan, post: 8676300, member: 677149"] Hello, I am trying to build a system, but I am no expert here. I have an Older Alpine SWR 1222D, (Which I think it's 500 Watt RMS), (Some websites says it's 1000 and some say 250 per coil and I'm not 100% sure what that means) Assuming it is 500 Watt RMS, I am looking for an amp. I have an alpine amp but I know it can only run 4 Ohms at 200 Watt RMS, Is that too low of an RMS for the Sub? Otherwise I will have to buy an amp, I found this one at my local store: [URL="https://www.visions.ca/product-detail/47049/memphis_mono_500_watts_rms_at_1_ohms_car_amplifier?categoryId=54&sku=SE20001D"]https://www.visions.ca/product-detail/47049/memphis_mono_500_watts_rms_at_1_ohms_car_amplifier?categoryId=54&sku=SE20001D[/URL] So this will give me 500 Watts into 1ohm that I need, but there is no "headroom", is that okay? I only have a sealed box too, so they say I need more power for this. Thanks for your help -The Sub Man [/QUOTE]
