Just go get a 2000rms amp and put those bitches in a properly built 5cu.ft. box and your done.

 

i did a build in a 99 civic with 2 12's and a alpine 1000.1 to each 1.75^ft each with a nice slot port....it made the radar detectr fall off the windshild

one on each side and the 4 ch under the seat

 

Alright! 1500rms it is. The JBL GTO14001 is on the way.

 

good deal.....

 

That's gonna be too much power... the subs can't take it... it's gonna smell like burned wet-dog in there ! Noooooooooo !!!

Wait... what am I saying ? I'm a firm believer of overpowering everything too !

Yay ! More power than what you truly need ! Just make sure your not pushing them too hard, and the subs will love that power.

I'm doing the same, giving 1500W to a pair of subs rated at 500W each. Only problem I've had was a dustcap popping, but that's a manufacturer defect I'm pretty sure. The paint peeled off the cone and bye bye dustcap.

 

When you're paying more than $1000 for an amp it's too much.

 

JBL and Alpine maybe over priced in some places but have you ever seen the prices on Boss systems? I laugh when I see they want $700 for a stupid little cd player. Now they have outagous prices!

 

That JBL's been running for about 5 months now. It cost me $200, factory refurbished from JBL.

 

What's your logic on that?

 

I could agree with that for a daily driver, lots of amps out there that make tons of power for cheap if you look around.
