Another powering a tempest thread (1 Viewer)

[James Slade]

I built a 220 liter ported Tempest tube sub. I have yet to purchase an amp. I originally planned to buy a QSC, but I hate fan noise, I even hate the noise of my DVD player. So I decided to move up to a Crown K1 or K2 so I would have no noise problems. I know these would be way to much power, but I suspect I will probably build another power hungry sub before too long, so I would get the use out of the amp then.

But maybe I would be better of getting a 250 plate amp for the tempest and buy the new amp when I build the new sub. Can the Tempest in a 220 liter ported enclosure use more than 250 watts?

What to do?

The answer is aaahhh probably
Depends on the size of the room, how much room gain you get, and how loud you want it to play.
