This sub is godly! I have this sub running off of a Hifonics 2610 mono amp running 2,600 watts and it FREAKING POUNDS SO HARD, not to mention it also sounds really good...suprisingly. I played the song called "HOODS RUN DOWN" by Lil Wyte, which has a bass check and this thing went on I swear a 4 and a half inch excursion which was incredible to watch If you don't know to much about car audio, then don't worry you cannot go wrong with this sub, it can take whatever you throw at it, and if it does blow just buy a recone kit for it and your good to go, unlike most other subs like a rockford T2 for instance which you would have to buy a whole new sub if it blew. Oh and for everyone out there who thinks you need to buy a bigger alternator to run somthing this powerful, your wrong. Just buy a deep cycle battery from the auto store, or get one of the kinetik or stinger batteries and wire it in parallel with you current car battery and also use at least a 5 farad capacitor and you'll be fine. This works because when the alternator can't prouduce enough current to supply the amp then it will start pulling from the battery also, and if you have another nice battery this will make up for the rest of the power that the alternator cannot produce. Trust me this is what I did and I'm hitting over 150db no problem and my electrical system doesn't drop below 11.5 volts
