Two 12's for my 2K?

It would be an easy decision if it were mine. But as previously mentioned, neither of those subs will let you down. They're both built very well, and will both handle the power well(unclipped). Ive heard both in person and they both get loud and sound great doing it.

Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.

Do the fi ssd and sa like similar boxes?

Also you do not have to put full rated power to a sub to get a big difference out of it. A lot of subs in my experience do well on less than rated and not any different when overpowered.

Like say you do not need to put 1000 rms of power to a 1000rms sub when you can get it to sound its loudest like on 750, depending on the sub because some want more than rated but most will be like i said.

well my baby bc2k just got installed the second it hit my front porch an hour ago.

its kind of sad hearing it at 2 ohms when it's only at half its potential:(.

need to get that damn extra battery! and money for MDF and 0awg:/

but other than those worries, i think i have my mind set on some certain 12" subs;)

Dude reading comprehension, it always depends on the sub like i said. Here it goes again for you.

A lot of people think you HAVE to put 1000 watts to a sub rated at 1000 rms to get the ABSOLUTE most out of it but that is not true in MOST cases depending on sub.

You could put that 750 and then try 1000 rms and you will hear no step up in sound when its just 250 rms difference.

Ive got 1 skar 12 on my saz-1500. It takes it all day, wired at 2 ohms, i'd say gettin about 900 watts rms to the sub, and it takes it no problem. Any of the brands listed will suit your needs, but i would stay away from the type r's personally. so much better can be bought for the same price or less
