Pair of IA LI 12. Enclosure recommendations can be found at the IA section of the SSA forums. Best time to buy IA right now and either @denim ; or @Vertex Audio ; can help you make an order. Other honorable mentions would be the Sundown X-12 and SSA ICON 12, given your power.

As for enclosure help, talk to @Buck ;

Incriminator audio lethal injection 12s on sale at soundsolutionsaudio.com. ia is known as a spl oriented company and the lethal injection s are rated for 1000rms and should take ur 2400 quite nicely. American bass xfl s are a good choice. Obsidian audio v3 are on pre order mine were quite musical. As for a enclosure choose ur subs first then contact @buck for a design or he can build u one.

Lethal injection vs sd x12

Li if u want more output all around x if u love the lows. 6 of one half dozen the other man. It's all up to ur goals. Both are solid and will handle. Around about the same power.

I prefer loudness over quality but I don't want a shirt sounding sub. I think I'm Guna go ia Li 12s will they handle 2400w rms even tho they are only rated at 1000w rms each sub???

 

[shauncox26]

Do u mean 2400 each or for the pair. For a pair they will eat it up, as for 2400 each I can't say as I have never heard a pair on that kind of power. I know they are over built for what they r rated. With proper gain setting I don't see them failing on 2000 each, but there again inproper setting could kill them quickly on less power. Enclosure plays a major factor here as well a smaller box can raise power handling while a bigger on can lower it .

I'll have to say I like the Sundown X series.

Its 2400w rms for the pair not each sub. N im actually suprised my kicker comp r are loud but sql is lacking. I want louder tho n more of a competitive brand. I feel like i wuld b seriosly under poeering x12s thats y im kinda leaning towards in is li 12s
