I have two of these in my 2000 Sierra powered by a Boston GT28. Got them over powered. It seemed to want more power, so I had to upgrade my amp from a Alpine MRP 1000. Made it overheat. I even get this amp hot when I get these to really hit.

I put one of these in my girlfriends single cab truck with a jl j2 360.2 amp and it sounded good but lacked the lows, so i got a fosgate 600 by 2 amp. Bridged it to 760 watts and the two of them in separate sealed boxed do very good. im thinking about a larger custom ported box but for now this is deffinately a good amount of bass. It is currently the loudest of anyone in the highschool (our highschool is very small 150 kids +) but still.. with out going to the JL shallow i would say this is your best bet.

I have two of these subs behind the seat of my 87 GMC standard cab pickup in a custom box, running them at 2 ohms to a Kicker ZX700.5 amp, these subs produce all the bass of two full size Kenwoods I had in my previous vehicle, if not more, and can sustain equal lows to the full size subs I had. I would highly recommend these to anybody wanting a sub who has depth restraints!

I have 2 12 in KFC-XW1200F's in my mustang convertible because of the lack of trunk room. I was very surprised at the quality sound and actually how loud they were overall. They work well in the mtx flat mount boxes that i have and the look great too. i mean look at them they are coated in kevlar!
