[QUOTE="winkychevelle, post: 8615317, member: 611804"] Well more power will be useful. Idk why 5k is the goal. That's an awful lot of waste considering you won't use the full power for long. Headroom is great keeps you from clipping the subs to death but I definiteit wouldn't go past 4k rms on that pair. For some reason the current trend on this forum is to push a lot of power, but it wasn't always like that. 5 years ago the only people that were truly pushing above 4k were diehard competitors. More emphasis was pushed on box design and positioning and the actual technical part of car audio. Proper air space, proper cone area used for the air space available. Don't have room for 2 12s run 1 15 or 3 10s or 4 8s lots of options to optimize your space other than throwing more power and taxing you cars electrical Now the answer is more power. Sad really driving power over efficiency. [/QUOTE]
