Yeah i was playing some low end music and for the first time they got hot. I am going to put them in a different box and see how they perform.

I also am wondering if the dual 1 ohm subs are just that or a little lower than 1 ohm? My amp is stable down to 1 ohm.

Well i purchased the dual 1 ohm subs so........something is wrong!!

No the birthsheet has it at 3,126 at 2 ohms and 3,546 watts into 1 ohm but that is measured at 14.4 volts. Not sure how they are getting though. I just never felt them really warm until today. I know they are power hungry and i got the voice coils tested today. They all read 1.5 volts so they are above the 1 ohm level i thought they were.

I have them on a Rockford Fosgate 2500-1bdcp thats sending about 3,400 to both subs. Maybe its too much power? I dont want to damage the subs since they are a few months new.

Thanks, you just answered my question.

I agree!! I think i was more worried about the enclosure being correct air space than anything.

I have no idea about the port area because someone built it for me. It has 2 inch baffle, 1 inch bracing inside and 1 inch all around the outside. The reason i think they need alot of power is because i had a set of 12W7's running on this amp and at half volume you couldnt sit in my SUV. With the FI's in i actually had to adjust the gain up to get the same output.

I hope so. It seems that these subs need alot of power.

Yes after everything including bracing my net is 4.23.

Yes after wood, bracing and everything my net is 4.23 cubic feet.
