hi
iam new here and to this whole car audio stuff,
need some advise about amplifiers i got myself 2 12inch audiobhan subwoofers but got no idea wat will make a perfect amplifier to support these subwoofers cause its says 2000 watss each and 1000 rms on the box so this means i will need some heavy duty amplifier to power these subs

any ideas ???

Are you doing a ported or sealed box.

you don't need that much power, or even close to it for those speakers.
you'll get full performance from them with about 300 to 400 watts each, easily.
the thermal rating has nothing really to do with how much power they need to reach full excursion.
Especially in the case of those audiobahns.

hi
yea iam going for sealed box but i have to tell u guys that iam kinda scared cause no one makes sealed box where i come from they all go for ported boxes but on the audiobhan website it says that sealed box will work better with these woofers, i will like to hear you guys wat u think i should do, should i make ported box or sealed box.
and dude are u telling me that 800 watts amp will be more the enough for these woofers cause i hear that if these woofers are in sealed box they will require alot of wattage for them to work. and also tell me wat brand of amplifer shopuld i get like rockford or kicker????

and last question that i have to ask u guys are these woofers any good ,or iam wasting my money here, cause dudes these woofers are still sealed in there boxes i can return them and get something different like kicker or jl audio.

i would return those. they are just white trash speakers that got real popular. they are just as good as legacy and overrate the power alot.

hate to be so cruel but it would be best to send them back. to me you have a 50/50 chance that will be ok. under $200 a pair? elemental designs!

Well everyone has their own opinion about subs. I personally would hook them up and see if you like them. Since you bought them off ebay you wont be able to send them back proably. So hook them up and you may like what you hear and be happy. The only person that needs to be happy with your system is you. In no way is audiobahn top of the line but is a decent sub if your on a low budget. Ive heard audiobahn systems that sound ok but proalby not gonna win anything with them.
