Yep, even the SEs like bout 750watts each...

maybe it is better for me to go with the SEs, may be able to use my same box? 3 cubes tuned to 32Hz I beleive...

I had my 2 12"s in 4cf@32hz on 1500watts and they slammed pretty good...

3 cubes for all 3 12's would not be good. Maybe sealed.

yes

Wait i forgot he had 3 of them. 3 wouldnt go well on 1600W would it...

Not really, thats like 500watts each. Ported they would be ok, but ull need like 6cf total for 3 of them...

And what load do they come out to be? prob not 1 ohm. less than 500 each.

I would just run 2 and sell the other

2.67 (d4)

or 1.34(d2)

Id run 2 also, if they D4s...

Even d2s would work. Still get 1k. But d4s would be better

I run an SE12 off of a JL 500/1v2 and it slams beautifuly. I ran it in sealed first and then switched to ported. It ran a 131.8 in the sealed, haven't metered it in the ported yet. In either case 500watts was enough.

EDIT: I also know a guy running one SE12 off of a JL250/1v2 and it sounds very nice, just not as loud.
