None of the above. If thats the best you can do go with 1 used 12 and used amp.

for $400 you could either browse the classifieds here if you don't mind buying used or if you want to buy new you could do something like this, one of these ported SA-12D4 - SUNDOWN AUDIO 12" DVC 4 OHM SA SUBWOOFER SUB | eBay with this amp at a 2 ohm load NEW MB QUART ONX1.1000D 1000W MONO D Car Amplifier Amp | eBay it would lead you room to add another one in the future. Or you could do one of these SSA Shop - SoundSolutionsAudio 12" SSA ICON Sub woofer and the same amp, would be a little over $400 but worth it IMO

CEA-2006 complient means it will do what it claims.. This one is not.

Just know that if you go over 1000 rms wattage you will need to do the big 3 and might need to add a extra battery

 

[ap0091 10+ year member]

oh **** iite, i might stay close to a 500W RMS..

tell me this, i had a Kicker ZX400.1 and a Kicker CVT12 SUB. it was a shallow 12 sub in a truck enclosure

I put that in my trunk and it was GARBAGE.. in my truck it used to hit hard, but in the car trunk it was garbage..then i moved it into the car and sounded good..was 400W not good enough to get through?? or was it the truck enclosure?

Its all about the box.. That sub is not made to have huge output, just bring bass to tight spaces

 

[ap0091 10+ year member]

If i got the MB Quart ONX1.1000D, I can run that from my stock battery right??? and not need a CAP?? or will I need a cap? if so can you put one for me that would be good? ive never had a capacitor so dunno how those work

Caps destroy alternators. Do the big 3,, if you still get dimming add a small battery.

You need to look for amps that are CEA-2006 complient. That MB is not. The AQ750 and 2 SSA Dcon 12s will be nice

 

[LosIsATool 5,000+ posts]

SSA Shop - SSA Dcon 12D4 subwoofer300rms

2 dual 4s will be all you need

 

[ap0091 10+ year member]

Imma follow the reviews on Sonic Electronix for that amp

and they say its good

now how about this sub?

NEW! KICKER CVX12 12" Car Subwoofer Comp VX Audio Sub | eBay

So i can use that amp at 750rms for 2ohm

and wire that sub for 2ohm

idk if this makes sense, but is it better to have 2 subs that hit at 400w rms each totalling 800w rms, or 1 sub that hits at 800w rms..

does it make a difference?

The CEA-2006 test means nothing at any load other than 4 ohms. The MB will be fine; it's cheaper than the AQ and will allow him to have more power.

OP- Get the ONX1.1000, get an SA-12 Dual 4, build a 1.7-1.8 cu ft box, and tune it to about 30Hz. Do the big three if you haven't done so, and don't waste your money on a cap.

Don't buy Kicker. The Sundown will hit harder, go lower, and sound better doing it.
