Great lil subs for the $. I have been very happy w/ them so far.

The can handle ~500w per sub (12's) daily and sound very smooth. Try the 12's in ~2cuft tuned to ~35hz.

BTW...i did 144.2dB w/ 2 of them on an Autotek mm1000d.

This is straigth from PG website:
OCTANE-R 12/12d
----------------------------
• 12: 12 inch 4 ohm subwoofer
• 12d: 12 inch 8/2 ohm subwoofer
• Sensitivity: 91dB (1W/1M)


250/500W (RMS/PEAK)

500 PEAK is RMS right and not peak PEAK?
I'm thinking about getting this one, what you think?
So it goes 1. Octane ZR 2. Octane R 3. RSd

octane r the rms its 250 the peak watts are 500 but it will take 300 easily rms.

the zr will take up to 450 rms even that its 300 rms .

The octanes and the RSd's are not the same subs.


The RSd's (radials) will take 500wrms all day long. We have sold ALOT of them at our shop and only had 1 come back.

We ran 2 Radial 12's on an autotek mm1000.1d for a few weeks w/ no problem. We also did an install w/ the PG1200.1 and 2 RSd 12's...they cant quite handle all of the power, but the box is alil too big and tuned too high for the subs. (The guy already had a box, we just dropped the subs in it) If they were in ~2cuft tuned to 38-34hz, they would handle it no problem.

Thanks,,,,kinda confused,,,Octane R's are the same as the RSd's???? I see that the ZR's are better, I just want a PG 12" sub 4 ohm FINAL and that can take 400wRMS.

So when they say 500 peak thats REALLY the PEAK, or do they mean they can take 250 all the way up to 500wRMS?

OOhhh Ok! Sorry for all the mix up, I took a look into other sites that had these, 250/500 means 250wRMS. So one OCTANE-ZR 12" will sound better then one RSd 12"?!

Thanks
