I have a Pyramid arctic 1000 watt amp. My 1800 watt sub cannot handle the amp at full power. would this sub handle the full power at 1000watt rms?

This sub is terrible. Hit decently for a little while (couple months) at 400watts rms from my viper before smoking up a storm.

yes this amp would be perfect... 500 rms amp pushing 2x250rms should be good... you want the amp rms equal to the total sub rms

I Bought a kicker 1000w amps for mine. Give it plenty of amps so that nothing blows. I hooked up both my subs to that and they work like a charm!

Yes your sub handles 1000watt rms, i have the same amp running PPI pro sub wired to 2 ohms to produce an Ohm load on your amp to produce 1000watt rms, good quality amp, you will need an upgraded alternator and a capacitor so your lights won't dim at night.

I am running 6 speakers and a sub on a single 1600 amp. I am about to break the sub off to its own amp as i am having minor over heating issues if i crank black sabbath for an extended period. I hope it answers your question.

Yes. This is capable of handling 100 watts at 5 ohms. 100 watts with an 8 ohm impedance out of the amplifier will supply less current than this is capable of handling, you may need to turn the sub's volume up slightly higher for more output. My amp is a 6 ohm 100w, it's just about right.

It can prolly handle a 3500 watt amp if the levels on the amp are played with to get the right sound but if it was me that would be overkill for one 10inch sub. I have a 1500 watt amp that's pushing it just fine. I had to play with the levels to get the sound right so it won't distort. I have the 10inch sub in a ported box that sounds amazing with the boss 1500. If you have a 3500 amp I would do a 12inch or 2 10inch subs. Just my opinion and I'm no expert keep in mind. I hope that helps you

It looks as if this amp is only 600 watts. I would go with a 2000 watt amp for 2 of the subs. I even had a Kenwood 1200 watt amp pushing just one.

Whats the RMS on your Subs? the RMS on the amp is around 570 which means anything over 570 will make it work a little harder (Which is why they heat up). if you have good breathing room around your amp like i do then you will be fine pushing two subs off it. I have 2 alpine type S 12 inch subs hooked up to mine. Doesn't heat very much because it has air flow around it. hope this helps.

The rms is 1200 and max is 2400; but unless you have a pro grade amp you can push it well past that; I have mine pushing 2400 watts on a legacy amp and it needs more power still

Im running 2 p2 12in with this amp. Its ok... i recommend you run at least a 1200 watt amp with those p3s... i have the 1200 watt on 2 p2s in my yukon.... sounds real good!!!

That will move the sub, but it can handle 1200+ rms. I have 2500-3000 watts rms going to 2 of these and they take the power with no problem. I'd get an apsm1500 (im running 2 of them). It will put out about 850 rms for the 1 sub.

I'm running an Mb quart 1100 5 channel amp and the sub sits on channel 5 at 675 watts. Sub sounds amazing for a single sub. So the answer is yes it will work as long as you adjust the amp to run at 3/4 power.

well first off when selecting an amp for your speakers your amp needs to have 75% or 125% the watt power as the speaker, with a 3000 watt amp you might want to never turn the amp up. i used a 1000 watt pyramid arctic series and it was fantastic. you might want to wire it as 4 ohm, which if memory serves me correctly is using both the voice coils.

It can handle around 650rms so 1200watt rms amp would still work just don't turn it up all the way and also make sure the ohms match up as well this thing kicks let me tell you

It should be fine. They can only handle 600 watts of maximum power so just don't turn your amp above halfway and you should be fine.

Make sure you have high capacity alternator, 4gauge wire or bigger, and that your subs can be wired to 1ohm. I have mines running 2 alpine type-x 12's at 1ohm fine all day long. Great amp for the price. Best money I've ever spent on an amp.
