Please dont buy these. They might get loud but the sound quality and overall sound quality sucks on them. I had one(well two) sealed and ported and it was just a big pig and my 600watt mono was able to blow it without any problems.

Pick up something from the RE Audio line. You amp would not be enough to power two 12 woofers btw. You can get two RE SE12 woofer(amazing btw) for $220-$240.

You are going to have to change amps if you plan on running two of them though.

I agree you should get something from RE audio here is a RE SE12D4 12" 600W RMS Dual 4 Ohm for $99....so you can have two for $200, plus the shipping and they are by far better subs

I used to run a pair of the 10" FX series subs and i loved them...

Ran them on suggested power and never had a single issue with them. Even ran them on my Autotek MM4000.1D down to a 1ohm load and they handled that power just fine too. box was something like 3 cubes net @ 40hz

Do they compare to my HDC or XXX or anything like that, HELL NO but they where better than any pioneer, sony, kenwood and JL subs i ran back then (yeah... i know...) If it comes down to needing something cheap quick, i will for sure buy them again.

There are quite a few options for you to look at, I mean no offense but you are obviously not too concerned with the quality and craftsmanship or anything so look around, you can find better...

I have heard these in a best buy "off the shelf" DUAL brand bandpass and they slammed pretty good...

make sure its the FUBR model, not the FUBAR, they have shitty plastic dustcaps that rattle and fall off. The older FUBR's can kick some *** ported, but cant take full rms.

So if that didn't make sense, buy these http://cgi.ebay.com/2-POWER-ACOUSTIK-FUBR-10-10-Car-Audio-Subwoofer-Subs_W0QQitemZ350123667521QQcmdZViewItemQQptZCar_Subwoofers_Enclosures?_trksid=p3286.m20.l1116

DON'T BUY THESE http://www.cardiscountstereos.com/catalog%20page.asp?Product+%23=FUBAR12W
