Would this amp give enough power to push this sub in a ported box

enough is relative... if you're only strapping on a 500/1 for budget reasons i understand it. but if you have the money then i'd go with a 1000/1

yeah its the budget!!!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/furious.gif.fc81ca146dbff91fede3ed290dbc4f4c.gif But it was either the 10" or the 12" and if at all possible I would like the 12". But if it's pointless to power it with that amp then so be it.

get the 12, if nothing else you can always upgrade the amp or power it with two 500's

it should still get deeper and louder than the 10" right?

speaker sizes are overrated as far as smaller ones hitting harder etc.

worry more about your install

no I'm not dead set on the jl. I was looking into diamond audio and adire audio, but the jl set up just seem to require less power and their products seem to go together well. Plus I've had two jl subs for five years without a problem. I'm looking for a system with one sub that will have great sq at lower listening levels with the potential to pound when the urge arises.

not another 500/1 on a 12w7 thread. not enough power to get all $750 retail value out of it. i would lean towards the diamond d6 1500.1, d5 1200.1 or zapco 1100.1 on that sub.
