yeah im pending a trade for one of these, just like to know some info about em and some opinions....is this a SQ, SQL of SPL sub?i know power handling is around 1600....my question is would it be worth it to put it in a blowthrough with 3cubes, ported (tuning?) on a new USamps XT-4000d.

Is it the XS series?Or the other one?If it's the XS, RMS is 800 watts but I'd give it up to 1600rms daily.I recommend 2.5cf. tuned to 35hz from personal experience.It's an SPL sub by heart, but doesn't sound all THAT bad.

BTW: No such thing as an SQL sub.
