i need to know if i get 2 X JBL LCS1250W 12" subs http://international.jbl.com/car/pro...er=LNC&cat=SUB . they have a value of 400w i dont know wot that means!
does that mean if i have 2 the amp will be at full potential or am i kidding myself?

PS if a sub has a max and a rms value. what should i actually be looking at to suit my amps 500 WATTSx2(max)

PPS would a 12 inch twin sub box 1.0 cu ft be suitable ?


kind regards for all help

the amp model was 1000n or something ( i could not find it on da net)

Welcome to HS!

This may sound harsh, but its for your own good.
Hi highly recommend you DO NOT get that amp..
It is crap!
Wont last very long, and will distort like crazy under minimal stress.


The subs are kinda ok, but still not that good.
specs :Specifications
Power Handling, Peak: 120/480W
Sensitivity: 93dB
Nominal Impedance: 4 Ohms
Frequency Response: 38Hz-500Hz
Voice-Coil Diameter: 50mm
Qts: 0.33
Qms: 3.18
Qes: 0.37
Fs: 27.4Hz
Vas: 109L
Revc: 3.45 Ohms
Mms: 109.23g
Levc: 2.23mH
Mounting Depth: 127mm
Cut-Out Diameter: 277mm
Weight: 3.8kg


They are 120w rms, and 480w peak..
You should always judge by rms numbers, they tell you what the sub can continuously play.



Sorry if I ruined your plans.. BUt that amp, is big No NO.

I would first have to say welcome to HS.com glad to have you...but as accord stated it's not worth the $ unless it's like 15 bucks and then I would relaly have to be in a good mood...

look on ebay as you could find a good one there a t a good price or I;m sure a fellow HS member might have one in our Classified section to meet your needs..

Hope this might help...

First, search around to find good quality products that will suit your needs. When I first started with car audio, I just bought what I could get the cheapest without knowing what was really good. It sounded ok but nothing like my system now. Just save up till you can get the stuff you really want to acheive your goals.

I MUST agree with tha man here! I'd let that so called "Deal" slip out from under me quick. The only thing that's good for is selling it for more to some other poor soul that don't know better.
