E-Train Posted July 28, 2008 Report Posted July 28, 2008 Okay, so as it stands I have 4 MTX Jackhammer 12's. 125-250RMS 500MAX They are in seperate ported boxes b/c that is all that i had at the moment, and they are being run off 2 insignia 1000/2's, a speaker per channel, so they are getting maybe 250RMS a piece. What I need is some suggestions, on how I can get them louder, they sound good as of now and all, but i want it louder, so would I need 1 single ported box, or 1 single sealed, or bigger amp/amps, monoblock, 4 channel, i'm open for all suggestions, and some critcism if its not to harsh lol All this is in a '97 Toyota 4 Runner Quote 1997 4 Runner Alpine CDA-9886 4 Fi Audio X Series 12's 1 Crunch GP3000D Pro DC Power Inc.
