dont you dare put more than 500 rms to that sub! you can put 800watt peak power to it but its limit is 500 RMS. 1500 Peak Watts. you need to stay nearest 350-500 RMS @ 2 ohms. please get with me on hooking it up. you have to have a certain amount of air space. as long as you have the least amount or more you'll be fine.
