either wired to 2 or 4 ohms, budget would be around 200-500 for the amp i guess? im not sure, ive been outta audio for a while man. And ill be looking for something new.

And as for the CVX 12's specs

Size (IN.,CM) 12, 30
Impedance (OHMS) 2 or 4 DVC
Max Rec Amplifier Power (WATTS PEAK/RMS)* 1500/750

Get dual 4 ohm coils on both subs, then you can wire to 1 ohm. Most quality class D amplifiers are rated full power @ 1 ohm.

Whats your budget? new or used?

If you get the subs with 2ohms DVC the ZX1500.1 would be a perfect match.

CHEAP on ebay.

Thats more amp than your going to be able to handle my bro has one and it has a birth sheet of 3800 watts at 1 ohm

As far as my amp you would need two dual 2 ohm subs for a 2 ohm load

update once again, i think im going for the MTX T9512-44. and buying two..>.> along with the TA92001 sorry for all the chanegs of heart =]
so those two are rated at 1000w rms each. and the amp will put out 3000w at 1 ohm. so if i wire both those dual 4 ohm 1000w rms subs to that amp, i think ill be fine =]

sean, ill see, im actually speaking with an ebay guy selling a brand new 92001 for $599. >.< but do you think those two MTX MTX T9512-44's would be good with it wired at 1 ohm? considering both of them are rated at 1000w rms a piece.

You would have to set the gain conservatively for the 9500s but they will take a little more than rated power daily
