[QUOTE="WildSebring, post: 4652865, member: 587978"] I was sittin here at the house tonight bored, so I decided to wire up XXX 12" RE to a Sundown 3000D. Yes I know it's not designed to take this much power, but I wanted to see how it would handle it. Put 2 DEKA 9A31's in the trunk...put it in one of my old 12" boxes I built and went at it..Gain at 0, Bass boost at 0 , sub pre-out at 2/15.. Box is 3 cubes tuned to 30Hz, fiberglassed, and 100 square inches of port. So god fricking loud it was insane. It blew me away for not having the reputation of being a SPL subwoofer. IKt does do what it is designed to do, and thats be an extremely loud ground pounder. Only thing is...after about 2-3 songs...the coils stunk exceptionally bad..to the point where I couldn't sit in the vehicle. Cone was not hot or anything, but I did not want to blow it so I turned it off... Tomorrow I'll put a PPI DCX 1000.1 on it and see how it does.. but in my opinion..this woofer should never be sent 3k watts... just too much for it.
