brewer_brewer Posted April 22, 2009 Report Posted April 22, 2009 new or old model xxx? you will need 1500 rms for the old and 2000 rms for the new. the se's will need 1200 rms for the pair, so its a big difference in power between the two. i would go with the xxx though, they get very loud and sound great doing it.

brewer_brewer Posted April 22, 2009 Report Posted April 22, 2009 it can be sealed but i prefer ported with low tuning. it does great in either enclosure though. does it have a 12 spoke basket or the one piece basket motor? what kind of amp?

brewer_brewer Posted April 22, 2009 Report Posted April 22, 2009 i would go with the xxx at 1 ohm in a 3 cu ft. box tuned to 28 hz. if this amp really puts out that 1600 then thats perfect. you might want to get a better amp if your going for true sound quality but it will work. dual 4 ohm, 2 ohm or 1 ohm(rare but i've seen them) voicecoils?
