Default Getting a RE Audio SE12"

Okay , I'm getting a RE Audio SE12" sub..

Can I get some amp suggestions and I have a box design..


How much do you guys think it would cost to get this box built at a car audio shop?

Thanks

Well, I'm not sure how much car audio shops will charge to make that box. It's not a difficult design, but doing anything at the audio shops is expensive.

I dont have any amp suggestions. I think those do well with around 600RMS? I havent seen any new amps lately. I used to have a 15" seXXX, which could take a bit more power, and I was beating on it with 1500RMS (sub rated at 1200 i think) without a problem.

The one comment i do have is on your box height. unless you take out the spare tire compartment cover or remove the hatch cover... it will not fit. I believe the tC only has 13.5" of height stock. I made a box as small as possible for my 10" L7s, and it was right on the hatch cover..

Never had a problem with my Hifonics and the SE series wants 800rms. This one should be ok for you.

That one would only work if you get the 2ohm DVC. If you get the 4ohm DVC, you won't be able to get maximum power out of that amp.

Look for one with ~800Wrms @ 2 ohms.
