Amp for 2 x 12"?

[yZoH]

Go buy a amp n sub based on jus rms an ill get one on max wattage n we will c whos sub lasts longer.

You are mentally not there... Go get your head looked at pal

Cheers

RMS is for 8 ohms or more.
Eg: home theater systems.
Car systems u go on max output watts

Can't help laughing at you for this. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

You should stop now.

Blah blah blah.
Go learn wen rms come to play an i bet u ask someone who really knows he will say 8 ohms.

Ask a smart technician.

You are seriously faulty, Dropped as a kid an then kicked down the stairs.

Ohm = Electrical Resistance

WRMS = Watts Root Mean Square, or average power output to put it in terms that you'll understand.

Maximum power ratings are not useful. Some are completely made up, some are achieved by amplifying a square wave to the peak output voltage limits. NEVER occurs in music.

RMS comes into play when you are working with any sinusoidal wave where the current and the voltage are in phase.
As a matter of fact RMS power rating is also a fudge factor, but it is more meaningful than maximum power ratings and is a better way to compare the power output of amplifiers.
RMS is really the maximum average power when a pure sinusoidal wave with a specific frequency is applied to the amplifier. This very very rarely occurs in music, as the waves are dynamic.


TL;DR: Compare RMS power ratings, not maximum power ratings.

Sorry if the words in there were too big for you, I hope you learn to understand it one day. I did write it in English, but based upon your previous posts maybe your preferred language is not English?

I don't know a lot about all of this, but isn't max wattage just the amount of watts it can handle for a short period of time?
And rms is the amount of continuous power needed to safely opperate?

Just to take the work out of searching these terms

Watt - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Root mean square - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ohm - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

And for some added fun

Ohm's law - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Enjoy.

Read my post above yours. If you don't understand it then no trouble, instead all you need to take away from it is that the RMS rating is the preferred method of comparing amplifiers.

Both are ratings on the power output, not power input.

Square wave is used for maximum power output ratings.
Sinusoidal wave= Sine wave. Used for RMS power output ratings.
Music is typically a large mixture of sine waves to form a complex wave.

All are a form of AC electricity.

Thus, maximum power ratings that are based on square waves are bad ways of comparing amplifiers as they don't occur in music.

Rms = contineous. An i bet no one on here has a sub that holds the same note "continuesly" so in other words u dont need to look at rms

Max out put = u run sub at max wattage its designed for u will get best performance out of sub
