Told ya so.... LOL ( Your sub recommendation page, posts #4 and #8 ) Glad to hear you're enjoying it!! I'm sure you agree the word needs to be spread about these subs. So many people overlook them just because they're on the lower end of the scale of power handling. Not only do they get louder than one would expect, but they sound absolutely amazing. Definitely one of the best subs that can be picked up for their price IMHO. My sister's 12" DCON just blows away everyone who listens to it. I agree with the others 450wrms will be plenty for it like Aaron said, there's just no need to run double rms to it for a daily setup. Now, just wait until it gets a little more broken in. It will play a little deeper, a little louder yet, and sound just as amazing.
