if u want SQ = sound quality the Infinity is good

if u want SPL = just plain loud the Infinity is NOT good enough , better 4 spl would be like kicker/orion/pioneer etc

if u want SQL = sound quality Loud then subs like alpine type R or X , Diamond audio , JL w6/w7 , eclipse Ti etc

so say what u like then we can suggest ,can ur ride hold 4 12s ???.....

well there subs, so i want them to pound really loud. I want to be heard for 3 blocks away. I dont want them to pound shyt because when i drive be side someone who has subs in the truck they sound like shyt. i dont want mine to sound like that. i want them to make them pound really hard, so it can make a heart beat skip.

well i guess i want both sql. but i already have the subs. i just need a better amp to power them so they can pound harder!! I dont trust the kenwood amp. Like i have 2 subs on the kenwood but i have 2 more subs to hook up to it and i dont know if the kenwood will be able to handle it.

Im in the same boat cookie monster...I have 3 infinity 1230w subs and am looking for an amp. But i think Im going with the MB Quart RAA1000 I think or the orion 1200d depending which ever one I can get cheaper. In your case though the orion 1200d, kicker kx 1200.1, or maybe beven the hifonics bx1500d depending on your budget (but i really dont recommend the hifonics unless your budget is tight). Also since I do have 3 of the smae subs he has do you think I would get sql too...or just sq.

COOKIE MONSTER,
I have a 2000 watt american legacy 2 channel amp -2 alpine type r subs in a down firing enclosure with amp and stereo up only half way you would hear me about a block away... advise 2 you get 2 2000 watt amps like mine or 1 4000 watt 4 channel amp and you'll be heard from far away
