help with current / future setup

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am looking at buying this sub... i already have a kenwood kac 923 and kac 929 and pioneer good head unit 6x9, slits tweeters etc.....

i just want to know what type of sub will suit my current setup...

this one

I have a Kenwood 2 channel (1000watt)amp with 460Watt x 1 into 4 ohms
which i will run all for into that sub

I then have a 500Watt into my speakers...

yeah its going into the civic.... will this be loud and sound good? also the guy at the shop was saying to run bridge all four into this sub and the rca to connect to my other amp to run my speakers.... that way i will have 460watt into the sub non stop....

if this sub only have 250rms watts does that mean that i should be looking for a sub that handles around 450watt to get the max out of my amp/sub??

i don't understand the question but i try to answer it.

if the shop wants to bridge all into 1 ohm config, then maybe you should ready the fire extinguisher. because as far as i know, ur kenwood can't play in the 1 ohm environment.

it's ok to put 2 of the JBL's (so your Amps can play 500W in 2 ohms condition , with not so big gain openings) but 4 JBL? i don't think so...

but if the kenwood really plays in about 400 W @ 4 ohms, u can try the Solobaric L5 or maybe L7 (look for the double 4 ohms, don't go for double 2 ohms) for more extreme bass 😀 try the ported enclosure (one is enough for civics 🙂 )
