If the Perfects are single 4 ohm then no, that amp will not be a good match. You could wire to a 1 ohm final load or a 4 ohm final load. That amp is optimized for most power at 2 ohms load.

If you were looking at Dual 4 ohm subs then you could wire it to a 2 ohm final load.

Are you open to other suggestions on amps and subs? Do you really need 4 subs? How about two higher powered subs?

Use this wiring guide to help figure out impedance loads.

The R 5.0:1 will not overpower one of them. Its 400watts rms for that sub. And that amp doesnt put that in any ohm independence. So you would be ok using that amp on one, bu it may seem a little weak I would assume.

I gave you my suggestion. I can get you a brand new DLS A6 for a little over 400.


DLS A6>>>>>>>>>>>>>>PG Octane Tenfold.

Exclamation

The Five 12" Infinity Kappa Perfect 12 VQd's

  • Each Are Recommended At 400W RMS Power
  • Each Have A 1600W Peak Power
  • Sensitivity Is 92 dB
  • Each Are Dual 4 ohms
What Amp Will Max. All Five Dual 4 ohms 12" Subs Out With At Least 2000 Watts To Run Each At 400W RMS If Not Then 2500 Watts To Run Each At 500W RMS?

The DLS Amp You Suggested I Dont Think Can Do That..If I Need To Go With Two 1200W Amps I Will Do That But I Need An Amp/s That Will Make These Subs Pound And Hit...Hard...At 400-500W RMS Each

Anyone With Suggestions On Amp/s For My Subs Please Post

Here is an amp that is freakin huge and should get the job done effortlessly. I have heard that this amp is quite expensive though, but since you said money is no object a good grand or two should be nothing...

money no option? get the zapco c2k4kw retails at about 7000 dollars and it will push your subs to death.

English. Please?

I'm sorry, I really want to help. But I can't understand a damn word you just said nor any of the ones you have been saying.

It's almost like you've completely ignored what Rob posted...

If your saying that i havnt heard that amp your wrong. GOing to be real hard to get 1 amp to do 2500w. You could try 2 arc audio 2500(what i have to push my two flatlines) would give you 2000watts. or you can try 2 of these arc audio amps fd2100d. there going to be a little out you price range. could get two for about 1500-1800. Also could try to get 2 zapco reference 1100.1.

I Wasn't Implying That At All Sorry You Thought That...But If Its Going To Be Hard To Get One Amp To Do 2500W Do You Think One 3000W Amp Would Do The Trick? If So, Suggestion Please.
