ookay... so you have 2 abahns supposedly 500w each with a rockford fosgate 600w stereo amp with a bandpass box? I think it will sound very bad. First, you are tryin to run 2 500w subs with 1 600w amp... and 2nd you have a prefabbed bandpass box. usually = no good

edit: just my 2 cents //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I'd sooner find a single 12" ported box, bridge the amp and turn the gain down... and run a single sub, until you could get a bigger amp.

Underpowering stuff sucks.

yeah well i have to stick with what i got because i don't have any extra cash at all right now so even though it might not sound the best it will be a system and it will still thump cause my friend did this to his and it doesnt sound that bad so oh well thx for the info though probly for christmas going to but another 600 watt amp

run one from each or just get a bigger amp but idk

More power isn't necessarily better. The biggest gain you'd get would be from a new box. I've seen some prefabricated bandpass boxes. That fashionable curved plexiglass cover ruins any hope of decent sound out of the subs because it flexes so bad.

I've calc-ed the grand total of all the materials necessary to build a box at $36. At least, that's what it is in my area of Michigan. It's still not exactly cheap, but it's a lot less than another amp.

this box is good the plexi glass does not flex at all i had one hooked up and in the box sounded great the box is good dont know the make of it my neighbor got it for me for an early christmas gift

2 audiobahn 12's 500 rms 4 dual ohm voice coil

So, let me get this right... each 12 is capable of 500rms that has four voice coils at two ohms each?

Oh wait, they are audiobahn... nevermind. The setup sucks.

The equipment doesn't matter, how it sounds does.

But I do agree with him. Audiobahn has some high hurdles to jump over before it would be worth the company's asking price. You can find better for less money. Consider that something to investigate while saving up for something new.

Quite honestly, the best thing to do would be to save up $$ to put towards new equipment rather than spend more money on your current setup.
