good single 12" sub for this amp..

Originally posted by Jdg784 Umm..if you seal them they handle more power, think about it..with a sealed box the air inside gets pressurized as the sub moves, causing more resistance, and therefor more power is needed to move the sub to it's x-max. A ported box causes power handling to decrease,

I wrote that sentence cause I thought he might just be a tad worried about pushing too much power into a driver. That's why I said so not as it's NOT sealed. However, if there's lack of power, then yeah, port it.

I would definitely get a Resonant Engineering 12 HC. They are available in dual 2ohm and quad 1 ohm models, and handle 1200 watts RMS. My buddy has an 81000D and his pushes 730 watts at 4 ohm. The HC driver would sound great with 730 watts and runs 374 dollars for the dual 2 ohm and 404 dollars for the quad 1 ohm.

If you have a w7 in a bandpass box with one "blowhole" in the top or side, it would sound pretty good. I have a 12 w7 with some ****ing Rockford Power amp in a box like that but it kicks ***. another idea is sell the amp buy a power amp "rockford". these amps will power anything. I had a power acoustik FUBR series sub in the back of my pickup under the cover hooked up with your amp and another little 300 watter but it kicked ****ing ***. One more thing, what do any of you happy people have for "highs" i only have 2 sony xplod 4*6's in the front of my pickup and 2 w6v2s JL Audio in the back and i love it but do think i need more highs?
