ok i have 2 rockford fosgates 12's about 500 watts a piece i also have one kove audio 12' it about 350 watts and i have one sony 10 it says 1100 watts so im guessing thats what it is. i have a four channel 300 watt legacy amp and a 1000 watt spx amp and a 1000 watt kenwood amp i want to make it hit so hard that i can feel it in my chest and its going inside a 93 ford thunderbird supercoupe

  1. you need some kenwood sub amps mate, hitch it up with the rest and it should be booming

    put them all the back near the boot, in the boot and near the front passenger doors, i swear down it will make some music

    Good Luck

  2. Man!!! you want a lot of boom.  i would go with the 2 12" rfg wired  in series with  the 1000watt kenwood.. if you put too much in that t bird you may blow your window seals. dont forget  you need to install some midrange and highs as well.

  3. sorry to pop ur happy bubble but that sony will only put out about 200 maby 300w and never go with a legacy amp thay suck. so id say get a better amp like rockford or cadence and bridge it. then it would sound better

  4. First understand SPL

    it is measured in db and 1db is the smallest volume change the human ear can hear. 10db is "twice as loud" and when power is doubled it is equal to 3db. likelwise doubling cone surface area is 3db. and a properly made box can easily make a 3db difference over a enclosure that is poorly made.

    Now speakers have a effieciency rating, it is a measure of db @ 1 watt @ 1 meter. so the higher the number the louder it is.

    often times a sub will put out much more volume in a ported enclosure than a sealed enclosure.

    so with that information here is a example..

    System A - 1000 watts RMS driving a single 12" 87db sub with a off the shelf sealed sub enclosure.

    System B - 250 watts RMS driving 2 x 12" 90db subs with a custom made ported box.

    these systems would cost about the same, but the second would be louder... even with a mere 250 watts. take this system x2 and now the first needs electrical upgrades (~$400) but the second works with a stock alternator.
