I have 4 RF p3 12's and 2 1400 watt crunch amps but don't have them hooked up yet, or enclosed. I think i'm going to just use 2 of them and one amp for now because i don't think my alternator will handle it. I was wondering what the best way to run them would be. (At what ohm and such) and what type of enclosure would best fit my system?

your alt will probably hold up. crunch amps are way overrated. depending on which crunch amss you have they might really put out like 600 to 700 watts rms.

please dont take offense to this but sounds like they are still returnable if so i would becuase we can get you a much better setup for the cash.

if not what are the subs vc config? d2ohm d10hm q2ohm ect ect? as well as what are the amps specs?

as far as box i would go ported for more output and make it yourself DONT buy a prefab.

"I think i'm going to just use 2 of them and one amp for now because i don't think my alternator will handle it"

yes sir if you have a stock alt you dont wanna run more than 1200rms

ok if you want pure spl look into
ficaraudio.com their BTL
ddaudio.com 9500 series

im sure some guys can give you more opinions but great place to start i personlally have a BTL and love it and have heard 9500 series loud as hell.

do a single 15 or 18 btl and that will be more than plenty for you in the correct box i promise if you cant build your own box bj fisher can do so for you but remembering now that you have a stock alt you would need to go with a BL and maybe a kx1250.1

well i think i want to keep the 4 12's being that i already have a box for them and selling and rebuying will all be a hassle for me. Any amps you guys would like to put out there for me ideal for my subs? And how about how i need to run the subs and amp?
