Hey everyone! I just got this amp today...it's a Phoenix Gold RYVAL V8001 1,600 WATT MONO-BLOCK CAR AMPLIFIER and it's 800 watts RMS, but I hear it's underated and actually can put out 1200 watts RMS...so that worried me a little since my sub is only rated at 750 watts RMS...I don't want to blow it...but the sub I have can also handle more power than what it's rated at, so I thought this would be a perfect combo. The exact model subwoofer I have is a DIAMOND AUDIO M6 MK 2 15D2 DVC 2 OHM SUB- which when I bought said it was only 500 RMS but I think the seller made a mistake, because I looked this model up on several websites and it says this sub is actually 750 RMS but can handle even more than that...so I figured the sub could easily take 1000 RMS(it's a 15 inch sub), but this amp I have is pretty powerful, even though it's only rated at 800 rms. So, I will have just this ONE sub for my hookup. If this setup is OK, how would you recommend to wire it? The sub is a 2ohm sub and the amp is a mono block class D amplifier. And here is a description of the box I got as well- 15" SINGLE PORTED VENTED 3/4" MDF CAR SUBWOOFER SUB BOX- So, what do the experts(or anyone who has ever used this sub) think of this setup? Will it last? Will it hit hard?Thanks in advance for any help, as I already purchased everything so I'm stuck with this setup unless I resold it. PS- also will I need a special alternator or another battery for this setup? I guess I'll know for sure after I hook it up...but I didnt need one for my last setup, but the amp was only a Rockford p3001..so this setup will be a little more powerful...(but it's just one 15 I'll be using)
