Do you guys think a Memphis 1000d amp would be enough power for 2 "12" Alpine Type R's?

should be, are u going ported or sealed? how much airspace are you giving them?

 

[miker0d86]

I don't know whether i should seal them or not I don't know how much airspace

amp is def plenty for what you want.

with the type r's go ported. they love it. about a 30hz tune and about 3.5 to 4 cubes before displacement.

nice setup....

thats a huge ported box....but hes right, they love it. Sealed, they can take a ton, but ported, 400-500 does them just right....loud as hell too.

3.5 to 4 is not huge for 2 12's. its actually pretty average.

yep, my 2 10's are high 130's to low 140's with 360w rms each. my boxes are way too small. 1 cube each, 2 seperate boxes ported and tuned to 29~31hz

great sound quality, keeps up with the front stage very well, great response, and makes your ears hurt if you listen for a while.

i thought u meant that kind of volume for each....misunderstood u

oh lol.... that would be a nice spl setup. 7 or 8 cubes for 2 12's tuned to about 50hz.

should turn some nice numbers ..... sound quality would be sh/t though

lol. I just dont refer to subs air space for 2 subs. I always say it in single sub volume.
