Hey guys,
So I've been thinking about upgrading my subs in my trunk for quite sometime now and I'm in need of some assistance. I'm no pro at audio, so this is where you guys come in! Haha, or at least assistance.
Anyways, I currently own a Pioneer GM5000t amp. Here's the exact model and specs:
* Specifications
* Peak Music Power 760 Watts
* Number of Channels 2
* Load Impedance Capability 2~8 Ohm (Stereo), 4~8 Ohm (Bridged)
* Continuous Power (4 ohm) 125W x 2
* Continuous Power (2 ohm) 190W x 2
* Continuous Power Bridged (4 ohm) 380W x 1
I'm not much of an audiophile, but I could use some help. I own 2 12" Pioneer subs that run at 150W RMS (I think) and I've been wanting to switch to a single 12" sub to save some trunk space. So my question is: What would be a good sub to pair with this amp for a decent price and is it safe to have a lower RMS on a sub paired with an amp that has a higher RMS or what? I'm a little lost at what I'm trying to explain, but assistance will definitely be a plus. Thank you in advance, as always!
