Audiobahn 1208T. Massive woofers. Had them on 1500rms at .5 ohm.

Still have them. Hooking them back up in my excursion. Replaced them with an alpine type R 8 in a small box behind my seat.

Ya audiobahn knows how to make a subwoofer that will shake a truck, I have a 10" and it really gets amplified in my single cab, sometimes too much haha

Mine are from 2002. They weigh 50lbs a piece I would say. Not the cheap black cone models. They were stupid loud. I still have them been a long time since I've hooked them up.

My setup was $500 new but I got it for free because it's kinda like a hand me down speaker. It's probably from the 90s and was recently discontinued. The only problem I had with it was the amp went bad so I just got a cheap boss amp and it works just fine

I have the mrv250 and the mrv500. 250 is in the truck now. Small amp! And makes some decent power for how small it is. 500 is the same way. Great amps. The 500 is probably going to be on my skar vvx 15.

I would get a different amp. Look used if you wanna save money.

I have an older alpine type R subwoofer that I've had for 8 years (bought it used as well) and it still sounds amazing. 750 rms daily lol

Well its an 1100 watt and it was like $50 I'm gonna see how it sound with the box I'm putting in it, but it seems to work nice with the box that's in there now.

It's not 1100 watts. That's a sales gimmick. Cheap amps don't put out any power.

My sub is only 300 watts so even if its half the power that it says it is then I should be fine

That Amp is maybe putting out 200 watts on a good day. Sorry to burst your bubble. Kicker amps are good and do decent power for what they are
