oh my bad i forgot to mention this is my older bros profile and i dont have that system thats his lol. im a complete noob to soundsystems right now and i just bought a p12d4 on sounddomain for $100 and a audiobahn A8000T for 200 they were both on sale so if figured i couldnt have much to lose with that kind of money. and the reviews seemed good but could any body tell me how that will prob turn out and if i should make a rec.0.7cu. ft. sealed inclosure or 2.0 ft. ported inclosure thx

Ported will get louder

And the P1 RF sub will disappoint you

Hell, the P2's will probably disappoint you. You're picking the worst focus point of a good Company(RF) and you're picking anotehr company which has no respect around here. Just my outlook on it

Buy a Diamond D6, port it, great SQ and good bass

Hell, pick up a JL W6V2i f you can scrape up the cash for it

You can find an amp for either for under 100 bucks taht will work well, that's not an audiobahn

you know i may be all fosgate but i totally agree with him on this, they made those subs just so someone can have cheap RF stuff and be able to brag about it punch stuff is ok the only Punch stuff worth while is a P3 which are awsome but not even close to the best of what fosgate has.
