[QUOTE="Vausen, post: 368368, member: 552252"] Another thing to think about. How much bass do you need/want? My ed12A w/1KW sealed can overpower the rest of the music pretty easily (i.e. ears get muffled sounding in 2 minutes and have to yell to be heard, rear view mirror bounces around and points at the ground after about 2 bass notes). For a daily driver who wants sound quality do you really need 1KW? Go with a smaller amp, 400W-600W and something like the O series from Elemental. It will still get plenty loud for a daily driver, have great SQ, and won't tax the electrical system nearly as much. Again, all depends on what you are looking for. Are you trying to build a street beater? If so go with the XXX ported with 2KW. [/QUOTE]
