what kind of tens are you getting? thats a lot of watts for a band pass box. Band pass boxes are typically designed for low wattage systems because they are most efficient for small power output. It really depends on the subs you have, but Id say about 130 watts rms to each sub would be very sufficient. (just in case you were thinking about buying a beefier amp, and you dont really need to)


I personally have 2 12" xplods (being upgraded very soon) in a 3 cubic ft ported box w/ dual chambers, (will be replaced when I get new subs), 1200w peak sub amp, and a 4 channel clarion amp which is giving me 100wx4 @ 2ohm to my 6 6x8s (one pair in rear deck) and pair of kenwood tweeters, topped off with Sony CDX-M630 head unit. My highs are very nice, but my xplods are over 2 years old, and they arent good anymore. They used to bump quite nicely though. I think I may be getting 2 Audiobahn Aluminum series 12's and building a custom box for them within a month or so.
