Thats really good, Im getting my 3512 on friday, hopefully dustins box will put out for me. But I need to get a bigger amp for it. Im only running a rockford 800 but its supposed to push out closer to a 1000 watts. Once I get about 1500-1600 watts running through it ill be doin alright.

Yeah I just cant afford that much amp right now.
Would a JBL 1200.1 run that sub decent or should I save up my pennies and go bigggggeerrrr?

then for comps you can save up and get a 2nd one to run 1 per coil.

should work out quite well

The only thing is that I got a daul 4 ohm sub. So I might just have to change the coils to something else if I uprade. maybe do a dual 2 ohm so I could drop it down to 1 ohm and run the 2500D but that would be a little much for daily driving... is there a coil configuration that can be set a 1 or 2 ohms? or just 1 and 4, 2 and 8 and so on? What would be an ideal amp for this sub? I wanna look into a new amp but wanna have big wattage and not have to change my coil to satisfy my amps needs...

If you had a pair of strappable amps, you could run your dual 4 into a 2 ohm config, then hook it up strapped and each amp will see 1 ohm.

or as kinslayr said you can find strappable amps. Im looking into a strapping module for my 2500ds right now. Most people say it cant be done but im pretty sure it can.

well Ive got $700 to find an amp online, so you think I should go with the 2500?. I gotta find an amp soooooon. The thing is I want to stick in street A for awhile.
