[QUOTE="shredder2, post: 8645304, member: 674047"] Earlier in this thread you stated it was a dual 4 coil sub... that means you'll have a 2ohm final load. Unless you series/parallel it to 8 ohms and in that case you'll really need a good sized amp to get all the power you'll want to the sub. 1ft3 enclosure? recommended by Alpine?.. if it is it's the absolute minimum for ported or most likely in the sealed range somewhere. As far as ported goes I think Alpine recommends around 2ft3 net, I could be wrong... that XTR 1500 at 2 ohms should power that sub pretty well if that's the direction your leaning to purchase an amp... it's not my first choice but I never recommend amps anymore... personal reasons, don't ask... lol An XTR 1500 at 2 ohm on that sub in a low tuned properly designed box should do pretty darn good BTW... might surprise ya' [/QUOTE]
