Background: I purchased a hifonics Brutus BXi 1208d which claims 1200rms@1ohm. I'm runnin' just 4-gauge wire, just the 1 probably Optima battery up front, and have a fairly large sealed enclosure for 2 12's pretty crammed in the trunk of my '03 Honda Civic.

Now- I was on the verge of purchasing Rockford Fosgate T1 (DVC4's) from my local store when I thought, "Hmmm... retail RF.... thats probably a big unnecessary waste of my cash".

SO THE POINT--- any comments on the T1s or another option for runnin' two 12's? and a good online store to save me some cash with no hassle?

 
Fi Q like med sealed boxes and will murder T1 in SQ and output.

RE SE are and far superior to T1 and 600rms

How large is the enclosure?

eD o Series or the 13KV.2 that are like 50 bucks each rightnow.

RF is so overpriced and rarely will sound like a sub should, loud is one thing but to have that ultra clean bass at the same volume level, you dont know what your missing untill you hear it.

 
I have the same amp and I am using two 12inch Cerwin Vega V-max the new (08) models and I have them wired up for 1 ohm and sound pretty **** good. I have a sealed enclosure and they dont take up much space at all

 
Thanks everone, I'm goin' with the RE SE's. Oh ya, the edkvs13's by edesign, or whatever they were, I could never buy them, no matter how good they are. I just couldn't purchase a $60 sub for my car, no matter how good it is lol.

And the enclosure, I'm not sure what it is exactly, but if I had to guess, it looks to be greater than a cubic foot (the optimal config for re se 12d4 is a cubic foot). I don't think it'll be a problem, the extra volume should really just bring out the lower-end a little more, i think, right???
