going from bandpass to ported

[cooper1513 10+ year member]

I am preparing to buy a ported box from somebody here on the message forum. I currently run an audiobahn bandpass with 2 12's. i will be replacing it with the ported enclosure and 2 new 12's. I am looking for suggestions and some 12's for this ported enclosure that will pound, 400rms 800 peak per sub and they must be wired together for a 2 ohm load. any suggestions $200 to $300 for the pair. thanks

What kind of music do you listen to? Do you want all out spl, all out sq, or a mix? What kind of amp do you have? Do you want new or used?

It measures 20" deep x 36" wide x 16" tall, tuned to 35Hz., i am a rap fan, A800T mono amp at 2ohms 800rms and 16000 peak. spl not to compete but i currently hit 139 dbs

IA 187 12s. They are dual 2 so you can wire them series parallel for a two ohm load. They also fit into your budget nicely.

they only handle 300rms 600peak, i need 400 rms 800 peak and the ability to wire a pair of them togethert at two ohms

why is it important to have that peak rating? Peak ratings do not really mean anything or do you need it to be 800 for some reason?

just cause it can hold more dosent mean it will be louder

that audiobahn dosent even put out 800rms i bet, that is without clipping it:naughty:

dont send audiobahn subs their rms, thats just my opinion on the ones i had, they didnt like it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif
