[QUOTE="fly_marlin, post: 8282591, member: 660781"] It really depends on what you're looking for. When this woofer was first recommended, I really didn't know what to expect. When we actually heard it, it was well beyond the expectations. Really depends how loud you want it. To properly power 2 of these, I would recommend their 2200W amp at the least, but you can put their 3500W on them as well. That would be very, very loud. Having said that, it will absolutely require you to get an HO alternator, upgraded wiring (0 gauge), and an upgraded battery. That's running close to $2K for those upgrades. With just 1 sub, you can feed it 1200W off stock electrical. Unless you're just looking to show off 2 blocks away, 1 of those should be plenty for music and will definitely impress people with its output. Setting the gains correctly doesn't necessarily prevent driver damage. Even if gains are set right and you continue to drive the amp past its abilities, you can still damage the driver. [/QUOTE]
