i just got my new subs
they are Digital Designs 3510s...more info can be found here http://www.ddaudio.com/dd/caraudio/w...p?series=3500d
my single sealed 10 just wasnt cutting it anymore...after finals i am going to build a complete fiberglass box for them in the hatch area after i realized i never really put that much stuff back there so the box is going to consume about 1/3 of the space

I had owned 3 of those amps (one got stolen when my truck was broken into 
) I run one of the in my vette that powers 3 Infinty Perfects 12.1Ds at a 2.66 ohm load. I'm estimating that amp is putting out about 1050 watts. I ran two of them in my red Talon TsiAWD into two JL Audio 18W6s. I figured they put out about 900 watts each. Man, those two 18"s made people chit their pants .
Anyhow, I think if you manufacturer's sheet says 1400 watts that has to be at 14.4 volts which is not a true voltage in the back of a car.
Not cutting down your amps (I own the same ones), but I do think 1200 watts into a 2 ohm load is more true. But...in Sony or Profile amps, that rating would be more like 7000 watts peak power
Some people believe that crap, there is a sucker born every minute. One cannot get a new 1000 watts per channel amp for $199

the JBL 1200.1s were bench tested quite a while ago to do very close to 1400 watts (between 1-2 ohms) at 14 volts...at 12v they will do 1200 watts (what they are rated at), and yes I was getting 14 volts in the back of the truck, at least for the brief second during a burp, but they would soon drop down to 12 volts, so that sub was taking anywhere between 2400-2800 watts...and yes they are tough, nothing like playing a 35 hz note at 75 % power when the box was tuned to 65 hz for SPL...

hey where did you purchase those subs? I tried a limited google search and didnt find much in the way of dealers. But maybe i just looked in the wrong place 
... and how much did that series price range run? I looked at the DD link and they have some VERY nice higher end versions that are just georgously machined. But they look too expensive for my poor self ... I can only wish.
