Ok, guys, your help is needed, I'm working on a system for my car right now. I have a 1000bd fosgate amp and 2 12" kappa perfects. The prefects are suspended verticaly in plexi in the spare tire hole pointing vertically. I have a couple questions. I don't enjoy trunk vibrations, where should I put dynomat? Below are the specs for the amp and the subs, what is the best way to connect is the amp I have suitable for the subs, is it enough power, someone told me to bridge them??

Thanks in advance for the help

Owner's Manual for:
• KAPPA PERFECT 12 om.pdf




An aluminum woofer cone is used, mounted to a precision die-cast aluminum basket using a high roll butyl surround. The basket is vented to provide additional cooling of the motor structure.

Maximized for performance in small sealed, vented, and bandpass enclosures. Check out the suggested Box and Parameter Sheet available for download.

Kappa Perfect truly bridges the gap between subwoofers intended for SPL and those intended for sound quality. If you're looking for a subwoofer that sounds great and hits hard, look no further.

A huge flared, polished and vented polepiece is used to provide optimum cooling of the voice coil and minimize turbulence.

14mm linear one-way excursion makes the Perfect10.1 ideal for high output applications.

well, the best thing to do, is to try and isolate where the rattles are coming from, and then put damping materials there, then turn the music back on, and listen for more rattles...keep doing this till it quits rattlin.

btw, there's a maxima.org discount going on in the group deals forum.
