you will need a new amp though. the deal for the subs are def. great. each sub is 750 watts RMS so get an amp that puts out 1500 @ 1 ohm.

make sure the sub are DVC 4 ohm - then wire to 1 ohm....

maybe this?:

so you are saying the Memphis 16-prd-1000.1 wont push them...this way i wont have to worry about maxing out the subwoofers. if it does not push them what amp should i get?

well you wont be maxing out the subwoofer with that amp.

That is such a great amp though. on ebay right now people are selling that for 340 shipped and their used. i would but them both and then sell the amp on ebay and then get a lil profit when lookin for ur new amp.

this would be nice, and expect around 1600-1700 watts @ 1 ohm because they are overrated.

i dont know many amps that put out 1500 @ 1 ohm though

it will be ok. but you will be underpowering the subs. u want to match the rms numbers on the subs... and each sub is 750 rms = 1500 watts total (to get the most out of the subs), which with these subs, will be the best choice.

It isnt nessasary to get a different amp. that memphis is probably underated about 15%. and puts out around 1100 watts and i think those CVX's will get plenty loud off 550 watts. After all, you can buy the memphis and if you would like them to be louder, you can sell the memphis (more than you paid for) and get something more powerful. I say go for it!

Memphis is VERY underated... the PRD does about 1240 rms with the 4x40 fuses... I must say, its the LOUDEST 1000D I USED!! more like a 1500D if u ask me !!! :-)

If a PRD can push these 2 15s, https://www.ecoustics.com/electronics/forum/car-audio/227960.html
THEN YES, it will push ur 12s!

u dont have to give the subs full rms, if its already an efficent sub... it can get just as loud with 3/4 its rated power...

I sold my prd for over 350$ i think...

If u get the setup it will drop lower sealed & sound better, but the ported box will be louder and scarifice a little sound quality...

with those subs, anything but sealed wouldnt be very good. they are spl subs and a ported box tuned to around 32 would make them pound. i have heard them in a sealed box and they dont get very loud.

and yes, i didnt realize that memphis amp put out that many watts. If it really does 1200 watts or more, GO FOR IT!!

$350 is alot for a pair of cvr's i just ordered a brand new pair of CVX 12's on sounddomain.com for like $345

go to sounddomain find the cvr's then click on the price match option open a new window got to http://www.etronics.com/product.asp?stk_code=kic05cvr124&store=&catid=369
then you will be able to get that pair for around $150
