  • just bought a eclipse 55040 hu

    And so the system building begins....

    Here is what I and thinking of

    Eclipse 55040 HU
    SoundStream Rubicon555 amp
    front - Audiobahn ABC600X component 6.5
    rear - Audiobahn ACX653 3 way 6.5
    sub - Audiobahn ALUM10X

    The amp is 40x4 and 150x1 at 4 ohms... I'll be pulling 3 ohms from the sub so that'll be about 180-200

    You are underpowering that sub REALLY bad
    I had 2 of them on an 800a2 and I still could use some more power. Just my 2¢

      Did you have them wired to pull 3 or 12 ohms?

      I do agree I am underpowering it. But it hits hard enough for me. I'm actually pushing an alum10 off less currently.

        Im gonna agree with the underpowering..although i too am underpowering my ALUM12X's and they are loud as a mofo. id put at least 500watts to that baby...it will scream like a little school girl at an N'SUCK concert.

          So what amps do you suggest?

          I have no interest in running more than 4x50, and I probably don't want to run over 400 amps to the sub.
