My buddy was running 2 12" R's in a prefab box off a KX1200.1, gain all the way up, bass boost all the way up every day for over a year.

I'm sure even without the incredible amount of clipped signal those subs were seeing they were still getting more than their rated power daily.

honestly. I have never heard these subs beat before. I hear they are VERY good though. I seem to think it is a good investment, but I want to hear it from someone that has a pair of them. They knock hard?

No shit... which is why he said it.

Dumb ass.

As for OP, many people on this forum give their AARRGGHHH's 1K a piece.

However, you should also think about buying a SD 1000D. Great customer service / products. I plan on getting a 1000D or a 1500D as my next amp.

Also, what's your budget? You never specified.

AQ2200 for the win! under 400 shipped form manufacturer.

I'd say arc audio ks 1000.1, u could get one for $400 and they retail for about $700. Pm me if ur interested. Check the amp out at woofersetc.com, it's badass.

ya they do. you need to put them in a good box. go ported with 4-4.5 cubes at around 32hz and they should get loud.

I say either Sundown 1500 or Rockford T10001bd.
