[QUOTE="d_sinsley, post: 8170656, member: 658010"] I will clarify a bit. I have an older sony xplod amp that is 140 RMS 300 Max. The power rating of the speakers is for between 40W and 150W RMS 300 Max. I like the suggestion of the Fosgate amp upgrade. one of the prime amps does 250W@2 ohms and I could pair that with their 2ohm prime speaker rated at 250W RMS and 500W peak in the same enclosure. Speaker cost is a push and the amp is 100 bucks. This is an option and a good one. I think you all helped me decide on the 12. Was starting to lean that way anyway. The beauty of it is that both the 12's the 4 ohm and the 2 ohm take the same size sealed enclosure. Avoiding the ported box simply because of size constraints and the fact that she likes a wider range of sound instead of just thump. I realize tuned ported boxes do wonders but all things considered a decent sealed box is small, provides fuller sound, and is easy to construct, comparatively. If she decides down the road she wants something different then we can re visit it. [/QUOTE]
