[QUOTE="patm215, post: 6539295, member: 617574"] Hey guys I'm new to the forum. I'm really having a hard time deciding which subs will fit my setup well. I had the mtx jackhammer JH5512 sub enclosure. I got these from circuit city right before they went out of Buisness. I had a 800 watt pioneer amp on them for a while and then finally upgraded my amp to MTX thunder elite 801d amp.
