Not that great of a subwoofer. Look elsewhere for better quality subwoofers. Take a look at the RE groubbuy link (somewhere in this thread). The RE SE should be priced a bit more, but quality (and sound quality) should be better while having the potential to get even louder.

Audiobahn is pretty pathetic. Try JL Audio or Kicker. In tems of RMS. Depends on the subs, and matching those, if you are running 1 12" or 2 10". Running DVC, or mono. 2 Ohm or 4 ohm. etc. I'd say at minimum 300 W rms at 4ohm and the same amp should be 2 ohm stable, allowing for 600 w rms. eg. Kicker KX600.1

not all audiobahns are junk, but for the most part there lower end is. I had thier flame q's then upgraded to the AWT, and i guarantee that the 2 12'' AWT's would out knock most people's systems.... thier amps on the other hand i don't like. I switched over to JL subs b/c they are less power hungry...
