hi, i currently own a Directed Audio 1500D mono block amp. to my knowledge, the amp is capable of between a 1200w rms and 1500w rms.(plz correct me if i am wrong) it is also 1ohm stable.

my question was could anybody advice me on a suitable sub.i spoke to one car audio shop and they recommended the Kicker L7 15" sub dropped down to 1ohm, what do you guys think.

every help and advice is welcomed.

many thanks

jim

What do you want from your setup?  SQ or SPL?

That's my opinion. Take it, leave it, or correct me.

What space do you have available as well. The difference in a system designed to sound good or go loud is totally different. If you are in this strictly to be a one note wonder at a contest, it is a totally different approach that is needed as compared to you wanting to be able to listen to your music on a daily basis at a respectable (or even above average) sustained listening level.
