What would you classify Stereo Integrity BM 12's? are they good low end subs, sq, spl. im hoping to break 140's with 2 12's and approx 1200 watts

It's goin to mostly depend on your tuning and the box they are in.

What sort of car? That is a big question.

You can easily hit 140 dB with two BM 12s and 1200 watts in a hatch or an SUV. A trunk might present a problem depending on what car it is.

I would classify the BM as an "SQL" sub... as much as that term is overused. They excel ported and maintain accuracy very well in that alignment. You will get lots of low-end in a low-tuned ported box, thats for sure... they will also sound incredibly good as is the case with anything SI makes.

it will be in a 97 monte carlo. HUGE trunk. seats fold down. approx 32hz tuned. maybe? not sure.. what would you recommend it be tuned to? and what is SQL? is it in between SQ and SPL? like a mix of both

"SQL" is a compromise at best, a delusion at worst...//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

When I heard one, I thought it had a great low end, definitely wasn't lacking.

In that big of a car I highly suggest staying with the 32 Hz tuning. The one thing you don't want to do in larger vehicles is tune lower b/c you might end up with too much low and sacrifice upper extension big time.
