I wanna know what size i amp to use for the dd. I have heard people saying 1500-3000. I want it for a daily setup in about 3 cubes tuned down low. I usually play my music for a few hours on end. usually the volume is jacked all the way up. I need as much help as i can get!

2-4kw but with a box that big you'll smash the neck joint and blow cones.

so what would be recommended around 2.5 to 2.75? What should i do? I wanna get the most deep and loudest sound i can possible.

2 cu.ft. box with around 3-4k to the sub

[bombout800]

why would i go with a box so small? So more power can be applied? I don't really want to go over 1500 if i don't have to 2000 at most but around 1500. So could i use a box at 2.5 or 2.75 with that much power? I have people saying 3 and some saying 2-3 cubic feet. What should i do?

For more cone control so you don't launch the cone 20' out of the motor.

It's more so you don't launch the cone 20' INTO the motor which makes the cone slam into the spider landing

2.5 cubes would be ok on 1500-2000w. They have very stiff suspension.

but seriously anywhere between 2.25-2.5cu.ft. would be perfect for that power range that ur wanting (1.5-2k) anything over 2.5cu.ft. IMO is to big for 1 12"

ok exactly what i needed to know i had a 2512 with around 600-800w in a 2.75 and it seemed to have to much space. So i think with a bigger motor a little smaller space, stiffer suspension, and the right port area and tuning it should be great! Thanks guys for your advice.
