Would it be safe to run this subwoofer off of a Pyle PLA3100D amp? (i know that the amp isnt 3100 watts since it has 4 25 amp blade fuses)

Yes , but be careful. A good rule of thumb to measure the true rms of any audio component is to add a zero to the end of the fuses and add them together. So in your case 4× 25 amps is like 4×250. So you have a 1000 watt amp...just don't turn your gain all the way up, which you should never do anyway because it's the distortion from these amps that blow subs. Not the wattage.

I wouldn't hook up an inferior amp to a sub like this... I would go either JL audio or sundown brand max 2000 Watts mono block.. I personally use an SAZ1000 and it works perfectly

I'm not to sure if it's safe or not but I have a Rockford Fosgate PBR300X1 Punch BRT 300-Watt Ultra-Compact Mono Amplifier pushing mine and it hits pretty good.

No i fried this amp running 2 12"opti drive subs at 1ohm. Desent amp but cant take being pushed hard

This amp only pushes 250 watts with a slightly lower RMS. You should consult your manual for the sub to see what RMS it should have. if you use a lower RMS then recomended it will reduce the life of both the sub and amp. I did not know that when I bought mine I'm running a w0 which is slightly underpowered by this mono block. good luck and I hope your system turns out great!

A subwoofer's wattage would be delivered to the speaker, not the receiver. This is a moot question.

I am not sure,couldn't find a wattage handling of those subs.I use it to push one 8 inch pyle driver tube sub.If I had two I probably would get a 400-600 watt amp...I have a friend that uses it to push two subs on a ski boat,and it sounds great,of course it doesn't take a whole lotto make boat speakers sound good,but compared to other boats it's better to me...

I wouldn't set it up like that...I would definitely get 1 amp to run the speakers, and 1 to run the sub. I purchased a 1000w amp for the subs, and this amp for the 4 speakers. Works great.JL W6 12V24x Infinity Kappa Perfect 6 1/2

Done this many times-no issues. It's really, really an exceptional amp. Just realize it's only 30 watts, though, so the room size it fills is small. Running it to a board and larger system has never been a problem. Mine looks like heck (having survived many, many gigs), but sounds as good as new.

Couple ways to answer this question. 1) you're already running through the amp/mixer - why use a powered subwoofer? You can run a subwoofer from the main unit at the appropriate frequency 2) if you insist on using a powered sub, then I would do what the others stated below, monitor output

No. The sub would also not be 500 watts, because this is only a 250 watt amp. You wouldneed another amp or a different amp pushing both subs . Also depends on the ohm rating of the subs.

I am running:4xInfinity Reference 6032cf 6.5-Inch 180-Watt High-Performance 2-Way Speakers (Two speakers on Channel 1 and Two speakers on Channel 2)1x Pyle PLPW8D 8-Inch 800 Watt Dual 4 Ohm Subwoofer (Bridge Channel 3 and 4)(Running a 10" would be better since amp can run it fine)

You should be okay with that. Just be sure not to overpower it or you will blow the sub. I've used underpowered amps on mine and they sound amazing!

I am running 6 speakers and a sub on a single 1600 amp. I am about to break the sub off to its own amp as i am having minor over heating issues if i crank black sabbath for an extended period. I hope it answers your question.

I have 2 500w pro dynamic speakers and a sub woofer, and it runs them with no problem. It can get so loud that I can't think straight.

You should be safe. Because I'm running 2 cx122 boss with a 2600 watt amp 1 channel.

It depends! At 1 ohm what's the output of the amp? If it's 1 ohm stable and pushing at least 750 watts then you good. Also depends on how many woofers. I would suggest only running 1 sub off it!

Of course, is good..just wiring your subwoofer to 2 ohm.. i have 2 15" Lanzar maxpro 2000W and it sound amazing
