Memphis Advice Please

I found a memphis 15-C312D4 for a $160.00. Good price? Brand new in the box from a Memphis authorized dealer. Here is some specs on it. 600RMS/1200Max Sensitivity: 86 dB Magnet size 82 oz Mounting Depth 6.5"

I'm going to wire the sub down to a 2 ohm.

Now for the questions. So I be looking for a amp that delivers 600 RMS 2@Ohms?

These are the amp I'm looking into

16-MC1.1500

375W RMS POWER @ 4ohms
750W x1 RMS POWER @ 2ohms
1500W x 1 RMS POWER @ 1ohms
N/A @ BRIDGE MONO POWER @ 4ohms
THD% @ 4ohms 0.50
FREQUENCY RESPONSE 20Hz - 650Hz

Now how much space do I need behind the sub to the back of sub box? The reason ask is because I want to make a long width box<------------> and not a deep box.


Thanks, Brian

I would leave at least an inch from the magnet. You do not want the magnet rattling against the wood. Plus, if you put your terminals on the back of the box it leaves you room for that too.

Your combination looks solid. Just remember to adjust the gain on your amp to meet the preamp voltage output of your radio. Set crossover to about 80hz.
