[jcavz24x 10+ year member]

Im thinking of getting ONE Audiobahn 12” FLAME COMPRESSION SUBWOOFER and a MONO audiobahn amp after i get my highs/mids.

I am doing this to save room in my trunk..Will this sound good? If so, what amp would be good.. an amp with 1,800 Watts x 1 @ 1 Ohm Mono? OR do i not need one that good??

Go with a medium sized to large ported box (around 2.5-4 cubes at least) and that sub will slap you around the inside of your car //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Im wondering if it will sound good (able to adjust?) when i play alternative type music also..do not want too much bass for songs that do not sound good with a ton of bass.

Im going to be getting infinity kappa highs/mids with an amp.

I was also thinking of using a sealed box as i dont wanted any other. Will it sound good still

My friend has that sub in a sealed box (I think like, maybe 1.2 ft^3) powered by a A12001D 1200W (@ 1 ohm) and it sounds goooooooooooooooood. A ported box would be best for this sub, but for what you want, a sealed box will work just fine.

PS: You can get that amp off ebay for about 300 bucks new, and it's real eye candy as well as a good amp.
