I ran 2000-2500 per hdc3. It really depends on the box though.

So each sub should get their own 2200? Possibly?

It wouldn't hurt to have the 2200s. It is better to have a little overhead, you can always dial them back if the subs are hitting their mechanical limits.

Roger that, should I start a new thread for electrical questions, if not, what kind of batteries do you guys prefer

 

[Chriszle 10+ year member]

If space or weight is an issue, I would go with Batcap, XS, or Odyssey. There's a lot of other less expensive options, but you may end up needing more batteries. Also, you will need a new alternator, if your planning on running 2 2200s.
