What subs to buy. 12'', i have 1200 watt 1 ohm stable amp

[aron_ft]

I have two Cvr dvc 4 ohm subs. im running them at 1 ohm off of a Hifonics brutus brz 1200.1 amp. i want to upgrade. the Cvr are only 450 rms. i want some subs that hit harder, and deeper. what should i invest in. i have about 400 to blow on two subs. would i be better off selling my amp and buying a bigger one also? any suggestions welcome, i just want something louder then i have. i cant fit 15's in my car. its in a sealed box also. Thanks for any help you can be. i want two 12's.

Unless you get a new box, you probably won't see any difference switching subs.

You can get a pair of Skar VVX 12s + a custom ported box for like $390, but I think the 12s may be out of stock for now. Unless you plan on spending money on a custom enclosure, the skars would be worth waiting.

maybe 2 skar vvx's or 2 obsidians. sa sundowns. all pretty comparable. idk if the aa havoc is in that price range. or a ssa product. look into those i guess

^^^ this. You can get loud off a good single sub set-up. But i would deff go ported man, my single 12 gets pretty loud

Go with two 10s ported then.

Go two 10's ported then...

Look into Obsidian Audio, and the Dayton HO line as well.

The Dayton HO's like small ported boxes so that would work...

Your problem isn't your subwoofer setup - it's your box. It needs to be vented/ported, that'll give off louder bass.

 

If you don't have room for 2 12s in a ported box, try 1 15. I realize you want 2 12s, but a little open-mindedness can go a long ways.

 

For a while, I thought I'd never have anything but 12s. But a 15 in the right enclosure gives me eargasms that the 12s could simply never deliver...

2 12's and one 15 will need pretty close to the same space...
