12" Q Box size, power suggestions

[brynm 10+ year member]

I'm strongly looking at a 12" Q to replace my two Infinity 1230w's, what size box, and tuning freq would you gus recommend for it? just about everything but country gets played in the car. also how much power can they handle, I'm looking at either a Hifonics BXi1206d, BX1606d or possibly a Kicker 1200.1 but leaning towards the hifonics because I can afford them new

Rms: 1000WSealed box: .8-1.5 cuft

Ported box: 1.8-2.5 cuft @ 28-33Hz

but as i think you know, they can handle more than 1000W.

kpr10is has an SX1250 for sale right now that would be perfect for that Q.

What kind of vehicle do you have?

I say get the Kicker 1200.1 But if its too much $ get the BX1606d and put it in a 2.5 cuft tuned to 31hz!

yeah...it can easily take 1500w daily....

i'd say 2-2.5^ft @ 30-32hz with the 1606D = SEXINESS!! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/veryhappy.gif.fec4fed33b4a1279cf10bdd45a039dae.gif

I have mine in a 2.3 cubed box tuned to 27hz with a Diamond 1500.1 on it and it sounds great. Very good sub for the money.
