car subs in room

ok itd be easier to read this thread i already made...what are your guys opinions? http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=5450&st=0&p=137540&#entry137540 this is really all you have to look at tho: http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?&DID=7&Partnumber=248-747 is an amp that powerful too much for my house?(i want it for a car sub in my room, the guy on SSA said itll trip the circuit breaker everytime the bass hits. is the only way to solve that is to install a seperate circuit breaker? thanks, VJ.

It says it draws just under 10 amps at 120 volts, if the breaker on the circuit is higher than 10 amps and the other plugs on the circuit aren't already overloaded, then you should be fine.2003 Chevy Avalanche,Eclipse CD7000,Morel Elate 5,Adire Extremis,Alpine PDX-4.150, 15" TC-3000, 2 Alpine PDX-1.1000, 470Amp HO Alt.

thanks for the fast reply! im gonna ask my dad tomorow what its set at, and im sure its not overloaded cept for like my mom and sisters 983598 blow driers LMAO but thanks man... btw, you think its dumb to do what im doing(get this amp and like a 2000 w rms car sub and put it in my room?)

I don't think the rest of your family will like it too much.  But at least you've got the start of some pro gear with that amplifier, in case you want to start up a karaoke gig or DJ or something.Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.

Dosen't sound dumb at all, i'll be doing the same in my garage, i just need to find a nice amp your my 4 bookshelf speakers and a reciever for a nice price in the future.2003 Chevy Avalanche,Eclipse CD7000,Morel Elate 5,Adire Extremis,Alpine PDX-4.150, 15" TC-3000, 2 Alpine PDX-1.1000, 470Amp HO Alt.

lol i know ill only be able to use it when theyre not home(alot of the day) itll work tho with the car sub right? where did u find where it said it draws 10 amps? i cant find it lol

Car audio subs generally make bad home theatre subs because they tend to have too high an fs and Qts.  Plus car subs tend to be very inefficient.  But there are of course exceptions.  What speaker are yu thinking of using?Support the12volt.com

That's in the specifications, you have to click on the separate PDF.  Under power supply/ power consumption. Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.

alpine guy- this is another thought of what i may do. im getting components for in my explorer, and i wanna take the 4 pioneer coaxiles i have, build 4 6x8 boxes, and put em in my room, running off my stereo receiver. then the amp will be hooked to the reciever(i think), and the sub hooked to the amp. and my reciever is already hooked to my PC, which is how i play my music. DYohn- will it make a bad sub for music, or just watching movies? im not gonna use it to watch movies...just rap music thanks for all your help guys
