What's Specs/model # are these subs?

They are Phoenix Golds that are about 13 years old and are still working great. I wanted to see if they would be a good fit with my current AMP that I have and can't find the information I need. I found woofers that look the same and they're the tantrum 12d. They say released January 06 but I know these are a bit older then that even.
Here's specs I found on tantrums: Compare Phoenix Gold Tantrum 12d Car Speaker vs. Dual Electronics XOBP12D Car Subwoofer - Shopping.com

Can someone help me out that may have a better knowledge base? Ty

Only bad thing is now my system is running 4 Ohms in the end where before I was at 2 ohms meaning 375 RMS instead of 750 RMS. I still think they sound pretty damn good tho.

Good deal. I never did hear the QX's, I had friends that used the QX chrome amps back in the day though. Info here: http://download.phoenixphorum.com/Ma..._and_Boxes.pdf

Don't get much bass at all with gain 2/3 up and bass boosts off. I gotta have bass boost on amp up to 2/3 (~15db) and bass adjustable controller up about 1/2 to get really anything.

PG's sound good though
