A pair will be nice off of a 2500D. Just dont give them them each the 2000W RMS they claim they can take. I ran a 12 off of a 2500D at 1 ohm and it got pretty hot and I could definitely smell it.

Ok so you think they will be fine off 1250 each? How did yours sound? Ported, sealed? Tuning? Cuft?

Thanks for the quick reply

They should sound great and last a long time at that wattage. I had them in 2.25 cubic feet ported, tuned to 32hz. I only had 2 3" PVC ports per chamber which wasn't enough. I'd do at least 12-14 sq. inches of port per cubic foot of box volume if you can fit it.
