Bronze Member Username: GangstafertPost Number: 54 Registered: May-06 | Matthew are your 12's loud, im a newb at this and so are all my friends so they will probably be louder then the petty systems that ive heard thats really what i would like to know. |

Silver Member Username: TheweaselSteamboat springs, Colorado U.S. of A Post Number: 247 Registered: Mar-06 | 2 12's will definately be louder than any thing your friends have got. what have you heard in the past that i can compare them too? also, make sure you have the electrical system to support them. you need a HO alt and prob a new battery. if you can't get that stuff go with 1 15" with an 800w rms amp and it will still be louder than anything your friends get/have. |

Bronze Member Username: GangstafertPost Number: 55 Registered: May-06 | my friends has 4 pioneer 12's dont know the model but they were the 1000watt max model and he had a 3200watt logitech mono amp thats the loudest ive heardout of all my friends. |

Silver Member Username: TheweaselSteamboat springs, Colorado U.S. of A Post Number: 248 Registered: Mar-06 | lol, he will be very embarrassed at the fact that you have 2 12" subs and he has four and you will waste his a ss, lol. i didn't even know logitech made car amps. those pioneers have a very slim possibility of beating your arsenals on notes above like 60-70 hz, but just challenge him with a song like grillz, by nelly, or late night tip, by 36 mafia. |

Bronze Member Username: GangstafertPost Number: 56 Registered: May-06 | thats what i wanted to hear i cant wait to get them. You wouldnt by chance have an amp for sale that i can power these with, would you. |

Silver Member Username: TheweaselSteamboat springs, Colorado U.S. of A Post Number: 249 Registered: Mar-06 | what's your budget? if you're looking for a budget amp get either 2 audiobahn a8000t's for like 300. http://cgi.ebay.com/Audiobahn-A8000T-Intake-Mono-Block-1600W-Chrome-Amp-NEW_W0QQ itemZ9733857409QQihZ008QQcategoryZ64571QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem or you can get a hifonics amp which will put out closer to its rms power rating at like 750 rms per sub http://cgi.ebay.com/HIFONICS-BXi1606D-Class-D-Mono-Amplifier-Amp-BXi-1606D_W0QQi temZ9733482748QQihZ008QQcategoryZ18797QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem i'd get the hifoincs so you don't have to hook up two amps. |

Bronze Member Username: GangstafertPost Number: 57 Registered: May-06 | that is the exact amp i was looking at erlier and wire them to 1ohm? |
|
Bronze Member Username: GangstafertPost Number: 58 Registered: May-06 | the hifonics that is and do you have box suggestions sealed or ported i some other people they just either way. |
|
Silver Member Username: TheweaselSteamboat springs, Colorado U.S. of A Post Number: 251 Registered: Mar-06 | yes they are dvc 4ohm subs so wire them to 1 ohm if you can fit put them each in a ported box built to the manufactueurs suggested enclosure i think for a twelve it's 2.0 cu ft tuned to 35hz for each sub you could tune it lower if you want but definately don't tune it any higher. try to build your own box or if you can afford it have tcab build you a box, ~$260 |

Bronze Member Username: GangstafertPost Number: 59 Registered: May-06 | my friend builds boxes you said 2 seperate ported boxes. I am going to get him to do it and then watch him so in the future i will know how. |
|
Silver Member Username: TheweaselSteamboat springs, Colorado U.S. of A Post Number: 252 Registered: Mar-06 | no you can do them both in the same box with two separate chambers. i just tried to put that because some idiots don't make two seperate chambers and wonder why it sounds bad. you can do two seperate boxes if you want it doesn't really matter. |
