I was really surprised at the SQ and output of these subwoofers. I just recently helped install a trio of these woofers in a 1.25cuft each enclosure on a USamps 400x 1500watts and these things take the power and want more! Excellent SQ and output!

I heard them out of a trunk of a 1995 Oldsmobile Cutlass. I would say it was doing around 145 in a sealed enclosure with a USamps 400x 1500watts rms on the subs. 145isn't bad for a set of SQ subs out of a trunk!

i had the alums for a long time. I still have not yet heard a better sub for the price. I had 3 10's and it was fairly loud and had aweomse SQ, i recomment these to many people. i had a D2 at 4 ohms going to my 3, and there was no sign at all of distortion.

they are the 12" models. Nice SQ and pretty good SPL. I think that with more power they would get even louder but my buddy wouldn't let me throw on the USamps2000x

I believe the only thing is that they need around 700watts rms to get them really moving each and they would totally slam! Love the way they drop so low for 12" subs, great all around for the price "I sell them for". Not a company plug but you can get them for great prices and I would suggest everyone to at least demo if you are into a SQL setup

naw i think the alum's sound great sealed. now maybe port the alum15x... but the sq/sql of the alums sealed it great. you usually see people with 3 alum12's hitting 150db

I wouldn't quite say he was doing 150 but that is because the subs are in a trunk and I honestly think that these subs need 700watts rms to each. He has a good 1500-1800 depending on voltage maybe around 147 or so would be more along the lines of what he is doing.
