I got a pair of Maw 12s and I love em. Nice and loud, sound good and they're built very well. If you can fit them, a pair of Maw 15s in a sealed box with one of these amps would be awesome. http://www.canadiancaraudio.com/online/car-audio-sale/31454-crossfire-2000ds.htm l No customs on those, and it's $300 shipped. You could run it at 2 ohms and just be easy on the gain. Here's the Mach 5 site. The Maw 15s are out of stock now, but you can email them to see when they'll have em, or the 12s would be great ported, which is what I did. http://www.mach5audio.com/index-2.html $96 shipped for the 12", $115 shipped for the 15". |

Gold Member Username: camPost Number: 1012 Registered: Nov-06 | Somewhere between 1000W RMS - 1500W RMS to the pair. Not even a warm cone after ten minutes of bumpin' as hard as that will push em without clipping. F.ckin' amazing for the $165/pair that I paid. |
