1200-1500 watts is plenty enough for these woofers. Put them in a 3.25 ft cu box each ported at 32 hz and have some fun. I ran mine single type x on a jbl bp1200.1 and all I can say is wow!!! Took five boxes for me to find the right size and tuning but once I got it.....wow. It's fun to watch all those ribs unfold at excursion.

i wouldnt put more than 1200w to a single type x. 1500 if you're careful

jl amps are waaaaaaay over priced for what you get. find a solid 2.5kw amp and you're set. use the extra money to better your electrical setup

i have 2 type x 12inch alpine subs... 3000 max a piece. i would like to max them... or have the ability to.
i like the sq out of the jl amp, but as far as reaching 3000 rms total, should i run 3 jl 1000? or is it better to run a single 3000 rms? if single is better, are there any good 3000 rms amps? and i think they have dual 4ohm coils. can i wire them at 1 ohm?

is there any way to pull more power out of amps?

and sq box setup?

is this for real? someone tell me its a prank...haha YOU GOT ME!

wrong, the type x can handle 1500 rms when gains are set correctly

given the question at hand, do you really think the op can set gains correctly?

huh, so okay, it says 1000 rms is safe per sub, you can go 3000 rms with two... peak is 3000 per sub. for all you out there, i could post a link to the pdf owners manual that i downloaded from alpine that shows all the specs... but i'd rather stick with safe. i like having the ablity to tune my subs, i had a pioneer running 2 jl's and didn't like not being able to fine tune the subs. don't say sony... i refuse to power my two type x's in my m3 with sony. the car may reject the thing... or me for buying it.

my friend has 2 jl w7's running off a jl1000/1 and they blow your balls outa your head. hooked one of my x's in a sealed box up to the same amp in his car and wasn't too incredibly impressed... like at all. but that is running my sub at 2 ohm... and 40% less cone area...

so if i wire them together at 1 ohm... and use 1 amp at 2000 rms, or two at 1000 rms... would that be cheaper and more effective? or running both appart at 2 ohm and using two amps that would have to push 1500 rms to pull the same power? well i guess the ohm depends on the amp. the 1000/1 v2 pushes 1000 rms at 1, 1.5, and 2 ohm.

i'd really like to pull as much sound quality out of them at the same time though.

thanks for the imput on the box, i will be building them probably tomorrow, pending on the availablity of med mdf around here. i can't think of a mill shop that carries that. 5/4 anyways.

Plug amps directly into the wall. Pos lead in the bigger slot and Neg in the other. Or you can solder on a lamp cord.

Make sure your gains are set all the way down or you could clip your amp.

Pics of M3 and subs, with you getting rejected please.

the 1000/1 and 1000/1v2 are not stable at 1ohm, they do 1000w rms @1.5-4ohms, less than 1.5 ohms causes the amp to lower its power to protcect itself, more than and it cuts output by half for every doubling of four. if the amp was not set to the right input voltage for the ohm load u wired the sub for, it might not sound good anyways. my suggestion: research what u want and what it will need before buying.
