Need to know if this car sound system would work.?

Question

Would one PYLE Red Elite 4 Channels 1400W Bridgeable MOSFET Amplifier Model PLA-4280 be able to power two Pioneer 12" 12" Shallow-Mount Subwoofer with 1400 Watts Max. Power Model TS-SW3041D two BOSS AUDIO Micro-Dome Tweeter Model TW15 with everything run at nominal power? Sorry if this is a stupid question, my first time doing this sort of stuff.

Answer 1

its good pyle is a good brand in dj and car audio so this will work just get a better amp

Answer 2

don't waste your cash, when it comes to car audio you get what you pay for 9 times out of 10

the subs are OK, the amp and tweeters suck

you need to stick with CEA-compliant companies--- their products have been tested and the amps produce or exceed their advertised RMS wattage with minimum distortion (distortion is the main cause of speaker damage) and their speakers can handle their rated RMS wattage also

here are the CEA-compliant brands

Alpine (highly recommend)

Bazooka (don't like their subs)

Blaupunkt (don't like their subs)

Clarion

Eclipse

Infinity (highly recommend)

JBL

JL Audio (very good but over priced)

JVC

Kenwood (don't like their subs)

Kicker (the best in my opinion)

MTX (highly recommend)

Pioneer

Polk Audio (highly recommend)

PPI

Rockford Fosgate (highly recommend)

Sony (don't like their subs)

its important that you KNOW the REAL RMS wattage because its impossible to properly match an amp to subs without the real wattage- you will be under or over powering something and thats not good because:

If you send too much power to your sub, you risk damaging it. The cone of the speaker and the mechanical parts that make it move may break under the stress. Surprisingly, too little power can also damage your subwoofer — in fact, it's actually more common than damage caused by overpowering.  

When the volume is turned up and the amp doesn't have enough power, the signal becomes distorted, or "clipped." This distorted signal can cause parts of the speaker to overheat, warp and melt. Not good!

You don't have to match speaker and amp wattages exactly. An amp with a higher output than the speaker's rating won't necessarily damage the speaker — just turn the amp down a bit if you hear distortion from the sub and don't run the speaker at extremely loud volumes for lengthy periods. Likewise, you'll be OK with a lower powered amp if you keep the volume down and don't feed a distorted signal to the sub.

Answer 3

either way that amp will probly blow in a week.and probly blow everything else because of all its distortion. dont buy a pyle amp its a waste of money. stick to some good brands you will be much happier

Answer 4

it will work but it wont sound to good. first of all you should not use a 4-channel amp to power the subs. it is not made for that. it will not get low enough and you will not be happy. second looking at the equiptment, you will possibly be over powering the tweeters and underpowering the subs depending on RMS. if you want this setup correctly, what you need to do is use the 4-channel for the tweeters and other speakers inside the car and get a seperate 2-channel or mono amp for those subs
