can they take the power???

i bought a two channel amp for my momo...but relized that the sub could take more power. it puts out 150 rms x 2 @ 4 ohms stereo, 210 rms x 2 @ 2 ohms stereo, and 420 rms x 1 @ 4 ohms mono. could i hook this up to my ex396s, or will it just cook them. i am pretty sure i can, but want another voice before installation.

thanks

well dude.. 420 x 1 into one momo is like "perfect" basically... the 10's a 400w and hte 12 a 500w... i've dumped up to 650 into a 12, but really 420 is fine.

as far as putting 150 x 2 onto two exIII 6x9's... good luck... here's an idea... get a pack of Marlboro's and have a smoke with your speakers... lol.

dude I tried to put 120 on my EX series II and they just died... i mean flat out dropped dead.

However, i must say this... my DB series 6x9's took a TON of power, and my DX 6x9's as well as my DX components take a healthy 140+ without breaking up... i've got two 180x1 amps on my fronts and a 100 x 2 on my rears...

I think if you crank the gains way back, you can use that amp on the 6x9's.... aim for giving them 100 x 2... they'll take that.. the ex III is a better line than the ex II was. but dont try to dump the full power of hte amp into them, they'll bake like grandma's turkey this comin holiday.
