[QUOTE="HiAmplidude, post: 2012394, member: 561470"] I ran a pair of RL-P 12"s in around 1.65 cu. ft. each (if I recall) sealed. Absolutely wonderful woofers. Probably the most accurate reproduction I've experienced from a subwoofer, ever. I was slightly disappointed with their high roll-off point, in this enclosure though (didn't stay linear into the lowest of the low barely audible frequencies of sub-bass). I'm sure a nicely tuned ported or larger sealed enclosure would've done the trick. I also had trouble modeling because software was tossing out all kinds of crazy graphs. These are definitely subs to experiment with in different enclosure alignments in your vehicle! They certainly have the capability to meet all your SQL dreams if done right. I only had a couple weekends to work with mine, so never had the chance to find that bliss, but I promise it is there. According to recommendations and experience, 1kWRMS per sub can over-do them depending on enclosure. Larger than 2.0 cu ft sealed, probably. Ported, likely (especially without subsonic filter). But, your power is only as good as what's feeding the amp, so it's pretty tough for me to believe that a full 1000WRMS will be reaching each sub, all generic conditions considered (unless I'm underestimating your cabling and alternator output). Lood Guck!... and don't forget to post pics n' stuff of your setup as you experiment and move along with your install. SoundSplinter is highly respected around these parts, and all it takes is a silly magnet-shot on your Poke Mon bed spread to get these guys drooling. [/QUOTE]
