I currently own this sub(been in storage 3 years), it's the model before this one but the same rating and everything. I just didn't want to use it cause it is more for boom then SQ. I might just throw it in there though. I had a 81000d back in the day, so i would get that or the BP1200.1 to power it. What do you guys think of that. I just think I would enjoy a nice SQ 12 inch sub more.

I knew somone with a power accoustic amp, he liked it but i never really got a good listen of it... his car had a nice bump to it tho so i would assume the amp wasnt too bad.

i had 2 cerwin vega vega series ten's in a band pass box in my 95 240sx coupe. my friend had 2 cerwin vega 12's in a band pass in his probe gt hatch back. he had a power ackoustik amp and i had a rockford than an mtx. both of my amps had less power than his and my 10's sounded louder and cleaner than his 12's by far with each setup
