A Friend of my has just recentley purchased a Solo x 10'' 2ohms, he is afraid that his 2000watt mono Earthquake will not move it. I think it will. What do you guys think???? ------------- I love Car Audio!

the amp will run that sub just fine. but the alternator will need to be upgraded. and i would suggest a kinetik battery www.kinetikaudio.com ------------- 1974 ford pinto 4 15" punch Z power punch bd 1001 pioneer DEH-6700

Definately needs an alt upgrade, no matter how big of an amp he puts to that sub it still wont bump unless he has a big alternator to keep up. Tell him to check out https://stores.ebay.com/Iraggi-Alternator-and-Electronics , www.mechman.com, www.meangreen.com , www.ohiogen.com . ------------- 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.

Look on Ebay for a H.O alt, your gonna need it That Solo is a beast, and your gonna wanna crank it up, but you need power supply on-demand to feed your amp. Is the amp 1-ohm sable. How are you gonna wire the sub to show an 1 or 4 ohm load? ------------- Alpine phantom Face CDA-7998
