I have sold ton's of those subs. You will need at least a 1000 watts of real power to drive that sub.

Try,
JL1000/1
PDX1000.1
Xtant 1001
MTX TA81001

Hope it helps.

i think they have a new model that replaced it but i had the alpine m1005 powering it before i blew out the sub (the sub was defective and wasnt because of the amp)

it pounds out the lows like a champ.

You will have to raise the hell out of the floor.
That sub is like 11'' deep, plus add 2'' for wood and fiber.

Have you gotten quotes?

No not yet. My friend worked for an audio company and did custom boxes but he hasnt looked at it yet. Still lookin for an amp tho. How much do u think the whole set up might run me excluding the paid for sub?

^ u can find a good amp for around 300-400 if u look hard. my alpine m1005 brand new was 350. decent amps that make 1000 watts rms are expensive. a custom built box isnt gonna be cheap either.
