Posted January 22, 201015 yr Hey I was wondering if anyone knows how much RMS wattage I can push to a fully loaded fi btl 12". I'm planning on getting a sundown amp. I will not be using bass boost.
January 22, 201015 yr Part of it depends on the box for mechanical power handling. As for thermal, it's hard to give an exact number. If it's for everyday use just get a 2000-3000 watt amp and turn it up until the sub starts stressing.

Bigger means less power is needed, smaller can handle more.
