sounds like a great sub...
heard a lot of good things about polk though





butttttttt im not a fan, id rather have a alpine type x for a jl w6 or w7

[94celigts]

MTX Cheaper and same quality. Polks are very nice though but are pricy. I used to work at Futureshop. I would only go with MTX, Image Dynamics, Infinity (higher quality not entry level). JL or POLK... no others.

MTX IMO is the best for the price though

[tim86]

they look nice... ive also heard great things about polk... whatever sub you get, just match it with the correct power and youll be good I like that box and sub combo tho

Two 12in. Polk MM2124 series running off the Polk C300.2 amp. Sounds nice and crisp. Exactly what I needed. Box was custom built to fit snug in the trunk. I have Polk db6750 components (front) and Polk db650 coaxial running off of the Polk C400.4 amp.

sounds loud^^^wat do u think of the wiring of polk?

[DaCCelica94]

i was lookin at the pic of that kenwood amp and the specs and your gonna run into some probs if you buy it because your going to be trying to run two subs off a mono channel amp.

[BLINKYxMUNKEY]

There are no problems with running 2 subs off of one mono amp. My friend has been running his for over 3 years now, problem free.

[DaCCelica94]

what i meant was you wont get as much power to both subs, i would prefer buying a 2 channel amp but thats just me

[CelicaST_CALI]

ya i thought of that,but thats around 600rms per sub isnt it??

[spolski07]

if you wire them correctly you will actually get more power out of an monoblock amp for 2 subs.
the amp see's the 2 dual voice coil subs as a 1 ohm impeadence instead of an 2 ohm impeadence, so you get more power out of the amp

[CelicaST_CALI]

wat do u mean wire right,just buy high gauge wire?that wiring diagram is correct right?

[CelicaST_CALI]

ok well i realized that these subs are 750rms TOGETHER so thats only 325 a peice....so i need to downgrade my amp.check orginal post

[cHinaman727]

my friend just got two 1200 w 12's from kenwood and a proaudo 2200 w for 350 install free XD

[CelicaST_CALI]

and wat does that have to do with this....that lucky bitch...
