straightforward answer is 75-100 rms, possibly 50. alwyas go by rms. i know infinity isn't all that forgiving on exceeding rms. it may be possible, but that tankes a good ear, responsible short playing, and experience... as in you have hashed a $500+ pair of speakers and have learned fromt he experience. perfects are in the "modern collector" category, so, i not only say it's general bad advice to overpower your speakers, but especially shamefull for all those suggesting to overpower these rare jems. they will play plenty loud and excellent in the 100wrms range. no need to cook them. straightforward answer is 75-100 rms, possibly 50. alwyas go by rms. i know infinity isn't all that forgiving on exceeding rms. it may be possible, but that tankes a good ear, responsible short playing, and experience... as in you have hashed a $500+ pair of speakers and have learned fromt he experience. perfects are in the "modern collector" category, so, i not only say it's general bad advice to overpower your speakers, but especially shamefull for all those suggesting to overpower these rare jems. they will play plenty loud and excellent in the 100wrms range. no need to cook them.

That's 100 rms 400 peak, so your rms should be between 100-200 and peak output should be 400. You also want a buffer between amp peak and speaker peak. So you should get something pushing 150rms and 300 peak. I like alpine but there are plenty of good options. Don't spend less than 100.

I run them on a 50x4 Memphis m class amp. As long as you're running a quality amplifier they'll run and sound amazing. Almost a year and a half old and still going strong and sounding good as the day I installed them!

Hello, i asked directly to Harman Int. and they recommended the kappa four and runs great!!

100 rms is what ur amp should have i personally will not get an amp higher than that

I run a hifonics 500rms x 2 @ 2 ohms for 4 speakers and ran that for at least 5 yrs and have yet to have any issues with them. Ive overheated the amp a few times(more than likely due to poor design) but the speakers have handled it just fine and I run them hard often.Just bought a new truck and plan on installing a set in it as they have never given me issues.

I checked the box and I was unable to find RMS. I assume Pyle would rather not disclose this. It's 100 per channel peak but I'd put it at 20-40 for rms

RMS wattage for these subs is 250. So whatever amp you get that puts out 250 rms per channel would be good. I personally have an 800 watt peak power amp, not sure of rms, and they sound and work just fine. Hope this helps.

That's for the total of the two together. So they are 400w RMS each. I'm running the Kenwood 1800w mono class D amp they hit HARD. I never turn the bass all the way up or the power on the amp all the way up either.. no need.

I run 400 watts into them. Crown xls 800 amp. Now and then smoke the protection fuse. But they get loud. Got four of them.

I believe these are 120 watts rms and 500 watts peak each, hope that helps. Note that even at 120 watts you will want the bass turned down a bit. These speakers ratings are not tested throughout the entire frequency range. 500 watts going through these speakers at a very low frequency would blow them apart.

Yes. It will be at 2000rms. I have 2 of these on a 5k amp and the amp rms is at 2800 watts at 1ohms. And man these things beat!
2256027
If i remember correctly the rms wattage rating was 250, but i run a RF 500 watt mono amp in mine at about 60-70% gain and it hits really nice. It might be a little overkill but you can lower the gain.

I have a 2000 watt amp on these monsters and they kick. I would definitely buy them again!!!

Greg think but it's not the amp it's the box that really makes or break these speakers for me. I have been doing a few different. I put them in a car sub box and they sounded ok with a 300 watt amp but I think a 600 watt amp would be ok as well bit if I had a 600 watt amp I would let you know for sure what they sounded like. They are good speakers for the price I just know yet if I would recommend them to any one. I put subs and amps in people's car as a side job and I still haven't even told anyone I have them yet because I'm not satisfied yet.

Dont buy ... sounds good til u put amp on them .anything more then 40 watts rms will blow them!!
1558299
All the info I read put them at 2ohm. I am running them at 2ohm from my amp.

I Bought a kicker 1000w amps for mine. Give it plenty of amps so that nothing blows. I hooked up both my subs to that and they work like a charm!

I consider 75 RMS 2 ohms is fine. I think this speakers are overrated. I use them long time ago with my alpine V-POWER series amp, calculating 100 RMS 2 ohms per channel and soon burned the tweeters.Before that, I used 60-70 RMS per channel and everything was perfect.sorry for my bad english LOL

300 600rms I have a 1600 watt amp and these hit hard and barley flex. Been a year almoat and I play loud bass bosst all the way up gain all the way up and no distortion or clipping

I have 2 of these amps I placed 1st at local sound comp 149.9 db luis is a tard it pushed 2 18 dc hard also check the imp. 0.02 pretty good for a cheap amp never overheat no problems I sugg a 2 far. cap to run with it

The speakers are 25 W RMS, 100 W Peak here is a link to the spec sheet. http://www.behringer.com/assets/1C-BK_P0196_S_EN.pdf I hope that helps.
