View Full Version : Will this work?
http://www.caraudiocentre.co.uk/product.asp?product=21221
Can i hook this directly up to my standard vauxhall stereo? Picking my car up on Thursday, but I wanna order my sub/amp before so I can install it on the day when I pick my car up.
Any thoughts please let me know.
Thanks.
12" Sub on a 222w Amp????
Do more damage to the sub, it's not right these being matched
Should be atleast a 600w amp on that
I've a 10" sub on a 444w amp, and that don't run brilliant
But anyway, there should be a 'high input' on that amp to connect your rear speaker connections into - REMOVING the rear speakers (they cannot be run together. i.e. rear speakers only or sub only, not sub and speakers from the same wires - you will fry the headunit). There isn't a phono out on the back of the standard stereo
the amp figure did worry me a bit. not got a clue what it all means or what the amp even does, but didnt sound right.
thanks for the info.
More subs are damaged by amps that are not up to the job than amps that are too powerfull ;)

its got a rms of 350w which is the true figures you should be lookin at, if that was 1200rms then i cant seem them being that price.
so they will match, otherwise why would a shop do it. just not exactly a reputable make.

If you get that package, they won't be able to supply the sony amp as they are having loads returned with defects. They can offer a kenwood (I think) or a unknown 1400w amp. I should know, I got it. Haven't fitted it yet so don't know if it'll work OK yet.
